The Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) invites comments from interested parties to inform the development of trade policy recommendations on the modernization of the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA), which is authorized through December 31, 2026. As part of forthcoming Congressional consideration of AGOA reauthorization, USTR will provide recommendations to Congress on reforms and modernizations to AGOA to ensure the program meets the needs of American workers and businesses, advances U.S. national security and economic security goals, optimizes balanced bilateral trade flows with beneficiary countries, and provides a path for reciprocal trade agreements with the more advanced countries as they develop and graduate from the program.
