How this service works
Country trade history from World Bank WDI: imports and exports of goods and services in current USD and as % of GDP. ISO3 country, last 1-10 complete years, independent latest values, units, nulls, source update date and CC BY attribution. Annual national-account totals, not bilateral flows, product-level trade, tariffs or shipments; USD values are not inflation-adjusted.
Output
Returns a time series (up to 10 annual observations) for the requested country containing: imports of goods and services in current USD, exports of goods and services in current USD, imports as % of GDP, exports as % of GDP — plus metadata such as units, null flags for missing observations, source update date, and CC BY attribution. Values are nominal (not inflation-adjusted). No bilateral flows, product-level breakdowns, tariffs, or shipment data.
Example use cases
Country trade openness research
“Can you get me the last 5 years of import and export data for India from the World Bank — both the dollar totals and the share of GDP?”
Decade-long export trend analysis
“I want to look at how Germany's exports have changed over the past 10 years. Fetch the World Bank trade history for DEU so I can see the current USD values and GDP percentages year by year.”
Emerging market trade comparison
“Get me 3 years of World Bank trade figures for South Africa — imports and exports in current USD and as percent of GDP — so I can compare it against other emerging markets.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://economy.openverbs.com/v1/trade?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need official World Bank WDI annual aggregate trade totals (imports/exports in USD or % of GDP) for a single country. It is ideal for macroeconomic analysis, country risk profiling, and development research. Prefer it over bilateral trade databases when you need national-account-level figures rather than product, tariff, or partner-specific flows. Use sibling endpoints on economy.openverbs.com for GDP, inflation, labor, or population data from the same WDI source.
Side effects
- Invalid or unsupported ISO3 country code returns an error (no region aggregates like EU or WLD accepted)
- Requested years out of range (less than 1 or more than 10) returns a validation error
- Recent years with missing World Bank observations are returned as null rather than filled or interpolated
- Payment failure (x402) if USDC balance is insufficient
- Network timeout if World Bank WDI upstream is slow
