The horizon of global trade is stretching wider than ever in 2023, and the magnetic pull of the U.S. market is undeniably strong. Now, if you're located somewhere outside the states, staring at this massive market of possibilities, you might be feeling a blend of excitement and maybe also some apprehension? Does that sound about right?

Well, after all, the intricate state requirements that are also known as the U.S. trade regulations, can feel overwhelming and discouraging at the same time.

Here are some key facets of U.S. trade regulations that you may already know:

• Tariffs and Duties: The U.S. has imposed various tariffs on certain imports from technology to every-day consumer goods. 




• Export Controls: The U.S. Department of Commerce's Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) oversaw regulations related to the export of sensitive technology and items that could have potential military applications.




• Trade Agreements: The U.S. was a part of several trade agreements like the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), which replaced NAFTA.




• Sanctions: The U.S. Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) administered and enforced economic and trade sanctions.




• Trade Remedies: These included measures such as anti-dumping and countervailing duties imposed to protect domestic industries from unfair foreign competition.




• Trade Preferences: Programs like the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) provided duty-free treatment for certain goods from designated beneficiary countries.




• Customs Enforcement: U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) enforced laws related to the importation of goods into the U.S., ensuring compliance with all relevant regulations.

Now, that all might sound like A-LOT to swallow, but don’t worry, because GoBizUSA is here to help you navigate through the trade process with ease.
