U.S. Embassy in Trinidad
& Tobago

History

Trinidad and Tobago is one of the United States’ closest partners in the Caribbean region, with vast economic ties, historic military cooperation, and deep cultural and family connections.  The U.S. Embassy in Port of Spain represents the U.S. Government, supporting its policies and programs through bi-lateral engagement, partnership with civil society, and outreach to the general public.  The Embassy’s three strategic goals are Security—keeping the people of both our countries safe; Commerce—strengthening trade and encouraging economic growth and entrepreneurship; and Governance—helping build institutions that better serve all people.
