U.S. extends AGOA duty-free access to African countries through 2026
The United States government has extended duty-free access to its markets for Nigeria and other eligible African countries under the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) until December 31, 2026.
This announcement was confirmed in a statement from U.S. Ambassador Jamieson Greer on February 3, 2026.
The extension aims to deepen trade ties between the U.S. and sub-Saharan Africa by allowing eligible nations to export more than 1,800 products duty-free.
