U.S. Imports: $23K
Surplus of $1.8M (net exporter)
The United States imported $23K/month and exported $1.8M/month with Palau as of April 2026, covering 3 product categories.
U.S. goods imports from Palau of $23K in April 2026 ran 45% below the year-to-date monthly average of $41K.
Palau, a Compact of Free Association partner with the United States, is internationally recognized for its marine biodiversity, and its limited export trade reflects an economy oriented toward tourism and subsistence rather than manufacturing. Fish and marine products represent the most plausible commodity category for US-bound shipments, and these are subject to FDA admissibility procedures. Trade professionals should note that Palau's small scale means individual shipments may attract heightened scrutiny for origin documentation completeness.

The Compact of Free Association gives Palau a unique political relationship with the United States but does not automatically confer duty-free tariff treatment on Palauan goods. Importers should verify the applicable MFN or other tariff rate for each commodity rather than assuming preferential access.
Palau is not subject to US antidumping, countervailing duty, or Section 301 measures, nor is it subject to OFAC sanctions. However, standard customs compliance—including accurate valuation, classification, and origin documentation—applies to all commercial shipments regardless of origin.
