Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Tax on imports is an example of a trade barrier. Trade barrier refers to the restrictions that the government imposes for the following reasons:
  • The government imposes an import tax to regulate the country's foreign trade. If there were no restrictions, then imported goods might capture the domestic market, ultimately a loss for the producers of local goods.
  • The government decides what type of goods should be imported into the country.
  • Government looks after the number of goods imported into the country.
