Can I see what Haiti exports?

CargoFax has no dedicated Haiti export dataset: Haiti records in CargoFax cover imports. Customers get a broader view of Haiti's trade flows by combining CargoFax datasets. Haiti and the Dominican Republic share the island of Hispaniola, and the Dominican Republic is an important trading partner for Haiti, so US import data and Dominican Republic import data help identify relevant flows shipped from Haiti.

Combining several trade datasets is the strength of CargoFax: it builds a more complete picture of international trade than one country's records alone. US and Dominican Republic records add visibility into relevant flows from Haiti, but they are not a complete record of Haiti's exports. See both sides of the island on the Hispaniola trade data page.

How does Haiti data reach you?

In Atlas, Explorer searches every Haiti import manifest record, Vault keeps the products and origin countries you follow, and Vault emails you when the weekly update adds matching records. Searches and downloads are unlimited, as in every CargoFax market.

For teams that load data into their own systems, Haiti bulk files through Files are available on request: contact sales to discuss delivery by FTP or API in CSV, Excel, JSON, or Parquet.
