World of Extreme Bottlenecks

Year

For 2017, the table below shows, for each importing country in the database, the number of identified import bottlenecks - HS product codes where a single source country accounts for >= 80% of total imports and the import value is >= 10,000,000 USD. Counts are provided separately for 6-digit, 4-digit, and 2-digit HS codes.

Legend:

This icon indicates that at least one HS chapter group (HS 0-9) has no records in the Results Database for the given country and year. It is very likely that not all import flows have been included yet, so the bottleneck count shown in the table may be underestimated.

(n)

The number in red parentheses indicates how many of the bottlenecks originate from countries flagged in the Danger Zone.

[n]

The number in lime square brackets indicates how many of the bottlenecks involve HS codes flagged in Critical Goods.
