Puerto Rico is one of the United States' most export-intensive territories, with pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturing dominating its trade profile. The island exports billions of dollars in pharmaceutical products annually, primarily to the United States mainland and European markets. Puerto Rico's trade operates under U.S. customs jurisdiction, and the Port of San Juan is the territory's main international cargo hub.
Puerto Rico's exports are overwhelmingly dominated by pharmaceutical products, medical devices, and biological products, which account for the vast majority of the territory's total export value. Chemical products and scientific instruments are also significant exports.
Puerto Rico operates under U.S. customs territory, meaning trade between Puerto Rico and the U.S. mainland is considered domestic commerce. International trade data for Puerto Rico is tracked separately and reflects shipments to and from foreign countries.
Puerto Rico's top foreign trading partners include Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Japan, and the United Kingdom, driven largely by pharmaceutical export demand from European and Asian markets.
