美国2027年起暂停南非AGOA免税待遇:约17亿美元出口受影响,南非称已备应对并愿对话

美国贸易代表格里尔(Jamieson Greer)宣布,美国将自2027年1月1日起暂停南非与卢旺达在《非洲增长与机会法案》(AGOA)下的免税待遇,称两国未达该法案的资格标准。
南非享受AGOA优惠的出口约16亿至17亿美元,包括汽车与农产品,这是南非对美出口的重要组成部分。南非贸易、工业与竞争部上周表示,已为负面结果做好准备,同时仍愿与美方对话。
南非总统拉马福萨(Cyril Ramaphosa)此前已表示,南非必须为被排除在AGOA之外做好准备,并已着手开拓新市场、签署包括与中国在内的新贸易安排。贸易界将观察华盛顿与比勒陀利亚能否在2027年生效前达成新安排。

US to Suspend South Africa from AGOA in 2027: About 1.7 Billion Dollars of Exports Affected, Pretoria Prepared and Open to Talks
US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer has announced that the United States will suspend South Africa and Rwanda from duty-free benefits under the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) effective January 1, 2027, saying both countries failed to meet the act's eligibility criteria.
South African exports enjoying AGOA preferences are worth about 1.6 to 1.7 billion US dollars, including cars and farm products, a significant part of the country's exports to the United States. South Africa's Department of Trade, Industry and Competition said last week it had prepared for a negative outcome while remaining open to dialogue with Washington.
President Cyril Ramaphosa had earlier said South Africa must prepare for being cut out of AGOA and has already begun seeking new markets and trade deals, including with China. Traders will watch whether Washington and Pretoria can reach a new arrangement before the suspension takes effect in 2027.
