The most important import-export partner of the EU

Switzerland is one of the most globalized countries in the world in terms of foreign trade. Switzerland has one of the world's most tightly compliant networks of free trade agreements, including with the EU and China to ensure the smoothest and most efficient trade flows. This country has simple but transparent laws, as well as a developed Swiss socioeconomic background. For this reason, Mr. Vu Dai Duong - Deputy Director of One IBC^® Vietnam, a reputable foreign company establishment consulting service provider, said that establishing an import-export company in Switzerland helps increase many significant competitive advantages doing business abroad, especially in the European region.

In 2020, Switzerland is the fourth largest export partner in EU (7.4%) and also the fourth largest import partner in the EU with 6.3%. Among trading partners, Germany is the leading market, accounting for about 25% of Swiss exports. Other major export markets include France, Italy, the United States and the United Kingdom.

The main import and export goods of Switzerland

Switzerland's most important exports are chemicals and pharmaceuticals with a value of $86 billion, watches at $48 billion, and machinery and equipment about $36 billion. In terms of imports, gold is the leading product with 21% of the country's total import turnover.

Chemicals and pharmaceuticals are Switzerland's most important exports

Other typical products imported into Switzerland are textiles, agricultural products and chemical products. According to One IBC^®, these industries are all strengths of Vietnamese enterprises.
