In 2024, $24.7 trillion in goods were imported worldwide, with some countries relying more heavily on imports than others.
Mexico, for instance, has a high import dependency, given its reliance on the U.S. for agricultural goods and auto parts. Meanwhile, imports are equivalent to more than a third of GDP in South Korea, fueled by food and energy imports.
