The protective Tariff of 1816 is also known as the Dallas Tariff. It is noteworthy because it marks the first time that congress passed a tariff to protect American manufacturers instead of just to raise money.

The purpose of a protective tariff. First of all, what is a protective tariff? It is a tax on imported goods (or goods that come into the country).So, a protective tariff would be one that protects the country from foreign competition. For example, the tariff of 1828. Northern prices were getting too high for the South to be able to pay, so instead the South bought its goods from other countries(England mainly). The Northern ecconomy was hurt because of this so Northern senators chose to place a tariff on all imported goods from foreign countries, thus protecting their industries.
An example of a protective tariff is seen in the importation of oranges. Citrus fruit does not readily grow everywhere, and South American countries often produce massive quantities for export. If a country can produce oranges but can import them from South America cheaper than growing them domestically, a protective tariff might be applied. This tariff will inflate the price of the imported oranges so that they are equal to or higher than the price of domestic oranges. This helps domestic companies compete with international companies.

Protective tariffs meant American goods were taxed less than imported goods.
Southern Planters apposed the tariff of 1816 because it made products more expensive. It made cheap English products around the same price as American ones to protect American manufacturing. Due to the rise in prices the South apposed this tariff because it only made losses for them due to their majority of agriculture as a method of making money.

The Americans that benefited the most from the Tariff of 1816 were the manufacturers. The western and northern states, having a strong industrial base, strongly supported the tariff.
Daniel Webster
A high tariff to limit foreign competition is called a protective tariff.
The tariff of 1816 was the first tariff passed in the United States. It was proposed by Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Dallas to help American manufacturers. It was approved in 1816 and was to last only until 1820. Southern states opposed it because they sold their cotton in Great Britain.
Sometimes a country suffering from a protective tariff will enact a tariff of its own on a product.
