Metric Briefing World Map

What Imports Share of GDP Measures

Imports of goods and services as a share of GDP, from World Bank Open Data.

Why This Ranking Matters

Examining Imports Share of GDP across all countries reveals patterns that might not be obvious at the national level. Regional clusters, outlier nations, and historical trajectories all become clearer when the full global picture is assembled in a single ranking.

Global Range

Values range from 1.27% of GDP (Sudan) to 177.72% of GDP (Hong Kong) — a 139-fold difference across 182 countries.

Regional Patterns

The top 20 is globally diverse, with countries from 5 continents represented. No single region dominates, suggesting this metric is driven more by national conditions than by broad continental patterns.

Values are broadly distributed across countries, with the middle 50% ranging from 27.55% of GDP to 66.2% of GDP. The overall spread from 1.27% of GDP to 177.72% of GDP reflects significant global variation.

Notable Outliers

The top of the ranking is competitive: Hong Kong and Luxembourg are separated by only 11%, indicating that the leading positions could shift with updated data.
