Statistics is an inherent part of UNCTAD: we validate and compile a wide range of data collected from national and international sources to provide you with reliable statistics to facilitate analyses of the most urgent and emerging issues.

UNCTAD's statistical work is in conformity with the Principles Governing International Statistical Activities.

Data center

The Data center gives access to more than 150 time series covering a wide range of topics and built upon common rules and harmonized production processes. Most of the time series cover long periods for almost all economies of the world as well as more than 150 ready-to-use analytical country groupings.

Tables are regularly updated and classified by subject area (Trade, investment, maritime transport, etc.) for easier navigation. Our data browser facilitates easy selection and reorganization of data, the construction of bespoke tables or graphic presentations, as well as personalized functionalities and extraction options.
