Tariff treatment, trade-agreement coverage, and live monthly U.S. import/export data for Sudan.
As of April 2026, the United States imported $222/month and exported $235K/month with Sudan. This page covers Sudan's customs status, applicable trade agreements, and the practical tariff treatment U.S. importers and exporters should expect.
Trade overview
Sudan has been subject to extensive US sanctions for extended periods, which has historically made direct trade between the two countries extremely limited. Gum arabic — a key ingredient in food, beverage, and pharmaceutical manufacturing — has been a notable exception, with specific licenses permitting its importation even during periods of broader sanctions. Trade professionals should verify current OFAC sanctions status and obtain any required licenses before engaging in transactions involving Sudanese-origin goods.
Practical tariff treatment
