Nicaragua: Nicaragua Expands Duty Free Chicken Meat Import Quotas

The Government of Nicaragua will open an additional 1,533 metric tons of duty-free access for imported chicken meat to alleviate price pressures in the domestic market. Imported chicken meat typically represents less than five percent of annual Nicaraguan chicken meat consumption. Under terms of the Dominican Republic - Central American Free Trade Agreement, U.S. chicken meat will enter Nicaragua duty-free, quota-free from January 1, 2023.
