Iran’s Foreign Trade on Upward Trajectory during President Raisi’s Term: IRICA

Iran’s foreign trade registered a considerable jump during the late President Ebrahim Raisi’s administration (32 months in service) and reached more than $301 billion, the Islamic Republic of Iran Customs Administration (IRICA) said.

EghtesadOnline: About 347 million tons of goods, valued at over $137.8 billion, were exported from the country between August 2021 and April 22, 2024, showing a 17.19 and 1.5 percent hike in terms of value and weight respectively compared to the same period in the previous administration, it said.

The report added that $48 billion of products were exported from the country in 2021, showing a 40 percent hike compared to a year earlier.

More than $53 billion of products were imported into the country in 2021, showing a 36 percent hike compared to a year before, it noted.

IRICA put the export of non-oil goods in 2022 at $53 billion, showing about 10 percent increase compared to a year earlier.

The country imported $59 billion of products in 2022, registering a 13 percent hike compared to a year before.

Iran exported about $87 billion worth of products including oil, electricity, technical and engineering services last year (ended March 19, 2024), showing a 58% hike compared to a year earlier, the report said.

A helicopter carrying President Raisi and his entourage crashed in northwestern mountainous forests on May 19.
