News and Updates

Recent News
Limited Trade Activity for Germanium Products Between US and Comoros
Recent trade data indicates negligible activity in the export or import of germanium ingots and monocrystalline crystals (HS Code 8112.92.60) between the United States and Comoros. No significant transactions or shipments have been recorded in the past year for these specific unwrought goods.
October 2023
Impact: The absence of trade in this niche sector suggests minimal economic impact or interest in germanium products between the two nations, likely due to limited industrial demand or production capacity in Comoros.
US Trade Focus Remains on Larger Germanium Suppliers
The United States continues to source germanium, including unwrought ingots and monocrystalline crystals, primarily from major producers like China and Russia, with no notable trade links established with Comoros for these materials under subheading 8112.92.60.
September 2023
Impact: Comoros remains an insignificant player in the US germanium market, with trade policies and supply chains favoring established global suppliers, reducing potential trade opportunities for smaller nations.
Comoros Lacks Infrastructure for Germanium Trade with US
Industry reports highlight that Comoros lacks the mining or processing infrastructure to engage in the trade of high-purity germanium products (99.999% purity) with the United States, resulting in no recorded trade under HS Code 8112.92.60.
August 2023
Impact: Without industrial capabilities or trade agreements specific to germanium, there is no foreseeable growth in this trade segment between the US and Comoros in the near term.
