Global Services Trade Data Hub

The Global Services Trade Data Hub provides access to comprehensive data on services trade. It allows users to customize data according to their needs, to instantly create dynamic charts and to print reports, making it a highly useful tool for trade negotiators, analysts, researchers and decision-makers.

Four separate datasets are available, covering digitally delivered services, trade in services by mode of supply, trade in commercial services, and the WTO-OECD Balanced Trade in Services dataset. Users are able to download individual charts and tables or bulk download data series. The Hub will be further enhanced with new features and content and will be regularly updated.

Digitally delivered services trade dataset

The dataset contains WTO estimates on services traded through computer networks, such as the Internet, apps, emails, voice and video calls, and digital intermediation platforms. It covers over 200 economies and regions and 8 sub-sectors for the period 2005-23. The coverage of digitally delivered services reflects the definition of the IMF-OECD-UNCTAD-WTO Handbook on Measuring Digital Trade. Data is consistent with the Trade in Services by Mode of Supply (TiSMoS) dataset until 2022, which allows a more detailed breakdown for these services, and contains the first estimates for 2023.

The Trade in Services by Mode of Supply (TISMOS) dataset, produced by the WTO, contains estimates of services trade through the four modes of supply identified in the WTO's General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS). It covers over 200 economies and regions for the period 2005-22 for 55 sectors. The dataset provides valuable insights into how services supply has evolved over the years, reflecting the impact of digitalization and the COVID-19 pandemic.

The dataset is the only source of comprehensive bilateral data on trade in services. The coverage will be expanded in 2024.
