Limited Trade Activity for PLDs Between US and Tokelau
Recent trade data indicates minimal to no recorded trade of Programmable Logic Devices (PLDs) under HS Code 8542.39 between the United States and Tokelau, a small Pacific territory. Tokelau's limited industrial base and small market size contribute to the absence of significant trade in high-tech components like PLDs.
2023-10-15
Impact: Negligible impact on US trade due to Tokelau's small economic footprint and lack of demand for advanced electronic components.
US Export Controls and Tokelau's Import Capacity for Electronics
The United States maintains strict export controls on advanced electronic components, including PLDs, which are subject to dual-use technology regulations. Tokelau, with its limited infrastructure, does not appear on major US export lists for such goods.
2023-09-20
Impact: US export restrictions and Tokelau's lack of industrial demand create a barrier to any potential trade in PLDs.
Tokelau's Economic Focus Shifts Away from High-Tech Imports
Tokelau's economy remains focused on subsistence activities and small-scale trade, with no significant imports of advanced electronics like PLDs from the US or other countries, as per recent trade reports.
2023-08-05
Impact: No direct impact on US-Tokelau trade in PLDs, as Tokelau's economic priorities do not align with high-tech imports.
