Venezuela: FAIRS Country Report Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   VE2025-0002
This report is an annual update of Venezuela’s agricultural product import standards and enforcement mechanisms for U.S. exporters of agricultural commodities, foods, and beverages. Political uncertainty continues for Venezuela, yet the country remains a distinctly promising market for U.S. agricultural exports. In 2024, U.S. agricultural product exports to Venezuela totaled $800 million, and the United States was the largest supplier of agricultural and food products by volume with 39 percent market share. Current U.S. sanctions exempt transactions related to the export of agricultural and food products and do not prevent export certificate issuance by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
