South Sudan Customs Status & U.S. Trade Treatment
Tariff treatment, trade-agreement coverage, and live monthly U.S. import/export data for South Sudan.
As of April 2026, the United States imported $97/month and exported $443K/month with South Sudan. This page covers South Sudan's customs status, applicable trade agreements, and the practical tariff treatment U.S. importers and exporters should expect.
Trade overview
South Sudan, one of the world's newest nations, has an extremely limited trade relationship with the United States, with exports almost entirely confined to crude oil — a sector complicated by ongoing internal conflict and infrastructure constraints. US import volumes from South Sudan are negligible, and the country's political and humanitarian situation introduces significant counterparty and supply-chain risk. Trade professionals should conduct careful due diligence on sanctions exposure and operational feasibility before considering South Sudan as an origin.
Practical tariff treatment
