Exposición potencial de las exportaciones de Puerto Rico a los aranceles de Canadá

El Instituto de Estadísticas de Puerto Rico presenta un análisis sobre la exposición potencial de las exportaciones de Puerto Rico a las nuevas medidas arancelarias de Canadá, vigentes desde el 8 de septiembre de 2026. El estudio compara, a nivel de seis dígitos del Sistema Armonizado (SA-6), los productos sujetos a estas medidas con las exportaciones de Puerto Rico hacia Canadá registradas para los años 2023, 2024, 2025 y de enero a julio de 2026.

Los resultados muestran una exposición variable y concentrada en un grupo reducido de productos. El mayor valor se observó en 2024, cuando nueve categorías identificadas totalizaron aproximadamente $4.78 millones, frente a $861 mil en 2025 y $104 mil entre enero y julio de 2026. Este análisis ofrece una primera aproximación a la exposición de las exportaciones de Puerto Rico y establece una base para dar seguimiento a su comportamiento una vez estén disponibles datos posteriores a la entrada en vigor de los nuevos aranceles.
