Message from the Ambassador

Welcome to the business pages of the U.S. Mission to Latvia.  The United States and Latvia are close allies and partners, whose cultural, political, and economic ties continue to strengthen.  With its growing economy, educated population, lower operating costs, and notable reform efforts to improve its investment climate, Latvia is an excellent entry point for U.S. companies seeking to export or invest in the European Union or beyond.  The U.S. Embassy in Riga works hard to support and build the strong bilateral trade and investment ties between the United States and Latvia. To support these efforts we work closely with the U.S. Department of Commerce, providing branded trade counseling, market intelligence, business matchmaking, and commercial diplomacy services to American companies looking for partners in Latvia.  In addition, we enjoy fruitful relationships with the American Chamber of Commerce in Latvia and the Foreign Investors Council in Latvia, both trusted partners.  We actively promote the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Trade Event Partnership Program, which brings Latvian companies to the United States to learn what America has to offer.  In addition, we actively support the “SelectUSA” program to promote investment opportunities in the United States.  Please explore our business pages, find out how we can assist your business, and do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
