Sint Maarten is a constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands located on the southern half of the island of Saint Martin, with a trade profile heavily oriented toward tourism-driven imports of food, beverages, consumer goods, and construction materials. The territory operates as a free port, making it an active transshipment and re-export point in the northeastern Caribbean. Its customs regime is separate from the European Union, and it maintains close trade ties with the Netherlands, the United States, and neighboring islands.
