News and Updates

Recent News
Limited Trade Activity in Specialized Footwear Between US and South Sudan
Recent trade data indicates minimal activity in the export or import of specialized footwear (HS Code: 9021 excluded, made to measure, presented singly) between the United States and South Sudan. This niche product category has not seen significant transactions due to limited demand and logistical challenges.
October 15, 2023
Impact: Negligible impact on overall trade relations as this category represents a very small fraction of bilateral trade. Focus remains on broader humanitarian and developmental aid rather than specialized goods.
US-South Sudan Trade Review Highlights Gaps in Niche Medical Footwear
A quarterly trade review by the US Department of Commerce noted the absence of trade in specialized footwear for post-illness or injury support between the US and South Sudan. Experts attribute this to South Sudan's limited healthcare infrastructure and focus on essential imports.
September 20, 2023
Impact: No direct impact on trade balance; however, this underscores potential opportunities for US exporters if South Sudan's healthcare sector develops with international aid.
South Sudan Import Needs Exclude Specialized Footwear from US
A report by the South Sudan Ministry of Trade and Industry outlined priority imports, with no mention of specialized footwear (made to measure, singly presented) from the US. The country's import focus remains on food, medicine, and basic goods amid ongoing economic challenges.
August 5, 2023
Impact: Continued lack of demand for this specific footwear category limits trade potential with the US in this sector, redirecting focus to other critical goods.
Policy Updates
No Specific Tariff or Policy Changes for Specialized Footwear
The US International Trade Commission and South Sudan trade authorities have not issued any recent updates or tariff adjustments specific to specialized footwear (HS Code: 9021 excluded, made to measure, presented singly). General trade policies under the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) remain in place, though South Sudan's participation is limited.
