 US Imports $643m in Nigerian Goods Ahead of Tariff Hike


The United States imported $643.1 million worth of goods from Nigeria in the first two months of 2025, just ahead of new tariffs set to take effect on April 9 under the Trump administration.

Data from the US International Trade Commission shows a 32.4% drop in customs-based imports year-on-year, falling from $951.6 million in 2024. Despite the decline, Nigeria’s trade balance improved, shifting from a $158.8 million deficit to a $44.3 million surplus.


Total trade between both nations in the period stood at $1.33 billion, underscoring strong bilateral ties amid evolving trade policies.
