Top Import Trading Partners of Myanmar

Myanmar's primary import trading partners are countries from which it imports essential goods. In 2025, top partners include China (35% of imports, $4.5 billion), Thailand (16%, $2.0 billion), Japan (9%, $1.2 billion), Singapore (7%, $900 million), and India (6%, $750 million).

Key imports from these countries include machinery, electrical equipment, petroleum products, vehicles, and chemicals. Trade agreements such as the ASEAN Free Trade Area (AFTA) and Myanmar’s participation in the Asia-Pacific Trade Agreement (APTA) facilitate smoother trade flows.

Myanmar’s GDP growth rate of 3.5% and inflation rate of 9.3% reflect economic challenges and recovery. Government incentives, particularly in the agriculture and manufacturing sectors, aim to enhance trade. Myanmar's strategic location between China, India, and Southeast Asia, along with its access to key shipping routes, provides logistical advantages, making it an important import market in the region.
