China alone accounts for 23.1 percent of total high-technology exports recorded across the 126 countries with 2024 data, and the top three economies together represent 41.2 percent of the total. The five largest exporters account for 53.6 percent, while the top ten represent 72.2 percent of the total. Japan (102.5 billion), Mexico (94.5 billion), Switzerland (89.5 billion), and the United Kingdom (84.8 billion) also record exports above 80 billion dollars.

Vietnam, which recorded high-technology exports of 132.8 billion in 2023, does not have a 2024 figure in this dataset and is therefore not included in the 2024 ranking.

High-Technology Exports Around the World

In Asia, China is the dominant exporter, followed by Hong Kong (422.3 billion), Singapore (223.6 billion), and South Korea (216.2 billion). Malaysia (134.8 billion), Japan (102.5 billion), Thailand (61.3 billion), India (54.1 billion), and the Philippines (34.4 billion) also record exports above 30 billion. Vietnam's latest available figure is 132.8 billion in 2023.

In Europe, Germany leads with 246.6 billion, followed by Ireland (117.6 billion), France (116.6 billion), the Netherlands (103.0 billion), and Switzerland (89.5 billion). The United Kingdom (84.8 billion), the Czech Republic (52.4 billion), Belgium (51.3 billion), and Poland (40.1 billion) also record exports above 40 billion.

In the Americas, the United States leads with 232.9 billion, followed by Mexico (94.5 billion), Canada (36.0 billion), and Brazil (8.7 billion). In the Middle East and Africa, high-technology exports are substantially smaller, with no country recording more than 3 billion dollars in 2024 data; South Africa records the largest figure in Africa at 2.5 billion.

Largest Increases in High-Technology Exports, 2020–2024

China recorded the largest absolute increase in high-technology exports between 2020 and 2024, with exports rising from 757.5 billion to 856.8 billion US dollars, an increase of 99.3 billion (13 percent). The United States recorded the second largest increase at 91.3 billion (from 141.6 billion, up 64 percent), followed by Hong Kong (340.1 to 422.3 billion, plus 82.2 billion, or 24 percent) and Ireland (43.1 to 117.6 billion, plus 74.5 billion, or 173 percent).

Germany recorded the fifth largest increase at 64.2 billion (from 182.4 billion, up 35 percent), ahead of Singapore (159.9 to 223.6 billion, plus 63.7 billion, or 40 percent). In relative terms, Switzerland recorded the largest increase among major exporters, with exports rising from 29.2 billion in 2020 to 89.5 billion in 2024, an increase of 206 percent, followed by Ireland (173 percent) and India (21.6 to 54.1 billion, up 151 percent).

Largest Decreases in High-Technology Exports, 2020–2024

No major exporter recorded a substantial decline over the period. Among countries with both 2020 and 2024 figures, the Philippines recorded the largest decline in absolute terms, with exports falling from 34.9 billion in 2020 to 34.4 billion in 2024, a decrease of around 2 percent. Japan recorded a decline of less than 1 percent (from 102.9 to 102.5 billion), while Ukraine (minus 31 percent) and Nigeria (minus 74 percent) recorded the largest relative declines from small bases.

Methodology

The statistics are based on the World Bank World Development Indicators dataset, indicator TX.VAL.TECH.CD (High-technology exports, current US$). The main comparison uses 2024 data, the most recent year available, covering 126 of the 169 countries and territories in our dataset. For countries without a 2024 observation, the latest available year is noted where relevant, but earlier years are not substituted for missing 2024 values in the ranking. Values are expressed in current US dollars and are not adjusted for inflation. Missing observations are treated as missing, not as zero.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which country exports the most high-technology products?

China recorded the largest high-technology exports in 2024 at 856.8 billion US dollars, followed by Hong Kong (422.3 billion) and Germany (246.6 billion).

How many countries are included in the dataset?

Our dataset includes 169 countries and territories. Of these, 126 have data available for 2024, the most recent year in the dataset. Countries without a 2024 observation are not included in the ranking.

What counts as a high-technology export?

High-technology exports are products with high research and development intensity, such as aerospace goods, computers, pharmaceuticals, scientific instruments, and electrical machinery.

Why is the latest year 2024 and not 2025?

The World Bank dataset used for this statistic does not include 2025 observations for high-technology exports. The ranking is therefore based on 2024, the most recent year available.

Are the figures adjusted for inflation?

No. The values are expressed in current US dollars, meaning they are not adjusted for inflation. Changes over time can therefore reflect changes in volumes as well as changes in prices and exchange rates.
