Did you know that the Department for International Trade (DIT) have a library of trade and investment factsheets online?

From Afghanistan to Zimbabwe, the factsheets each contain a snapshot of the UK’s trade and investment positions.

According to the DIT, they summarise the latest statistics on trade and investment between the UK and individual overseas partners.

The documents provide statistics between the UK and its partners on:

  • exports, imports, and total trade
  • trade by commodity and service type
  • regional trade in the UK for goods
  • UK market share for trading partners
  • VAT-registered businesses trading goods
  • foreign direct investment (FDI)
  • summary trade and investment data as reported by each partner
  • economic data and projections

Data is collected from the Office for National Statistics (ONS), HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC), and international databases.

All figures in the factsheets are the most up to date at the time of publication.
