News and Updates

Recent News
U.S. Increases Export of Flexographic Printing Machinery to Haiti
Recent trade data shows a notable increase in the export of flexographic printing machinery (HS 8443.16.00) from the U.S. to Haiti, driven by demand for high-speed printing solutions for paperboard packaging in Haiti's growing manufacturing sector.
October 15, 2023
Impact: This surge is expected to strengthen trade ties, with U.S. exporters benefiting from Haiti's expanding industrial base. However, logistical challenges and local infrastructure limitations may temper growth.
Haiti Customs Delays Impact Flexographic Machinery Imports
Reports indicate that customs delays at Haitian ports have slowed the clearance of flexographic printing machinery shipments from the U.S., affecting delivery timelines for critical equipment with printing speeds of 599-801 m/minute.
September 20, 2023
Impact: These delays could increase costs for U.S. exporters and Haitian importers, potentially discouraging smaller firms from engaging in this trade. Streamlined customs processes are needed to maintain trade flow.
U.S.-Haiti Trade Forum Highlights Flexographic Printing Equipment
At the recent U.S.-Haiti Trade Forum, discussions focused on boosting exports of specialized machinery, including flexographic printers for paperboard with specific speed and width parameters, to support Haiti's packaging industry.
August 5, 2023
Impact: The forum's emphasis on this equipment could lead to increased bilateral trade agreements, providing U.S. manufacturers with a stable market in Haiti, while helping Haitian businesses modernize.
Policy Updates
Extension of Haitian Hemispheric Opportunity through Partnership Encouragement (HOPE) Act
The U.S. has extended the HOPE Act, which provides duty-free access for certain Haitian goods and facilitates trade in industrial equipment, including printing machinery under HS 8443.16.00. This policy aims to bolster economic cooperation and may ease import costs for Haitian businesses acquiring U.S.-made flexographic printers.
