In economics, an export is any good or commodity, transported from one country to another country in a legitimate fashion, typically for use in trade. Export goods or services are provided to foreign consumers by domestic producers. Export is an important part of international trade. Export of commercial quantities of goods normally requires involvement of the customs authorities in both the country of export and the country of import. The advent of small trades over the internet such as through Amazon and e-Bay have largely bypassed the involvement of Customs in many countries because of the low individual values of these trades. Nonetheless, these small exports are still subject to legal restrictions applied by the country of export. An export's counterpart is an import.

History

For more details on this topic, see History of international trade.

The theory of international trade and commercial policy is one of the oldest branches of economic thought. Exporting is a major component of international trade, and the macroeconomic risks and benefits of exporting are regularly discussed and disputed by economists and others. Two views concerning international trade present different perspectives. The first recognizes the benefits of international trade. The second concerns itself with the possibly that certain domestic industries (or laborers, or culture) could be harmed by foreign competition.

What were some of the exports of Japan in the mid 1800s?
Q. Today, the Japanese export more electronic things, but what did they export before cars and cell phones and such? I know Japan does not have many natural resources, though... But it doesn't have to be natural resources, just exports that are not modern.

What would happen if America stopped all imports and exports?
Q. Hypothetically speaking what would happen if America would stop all imports and exports? What would happen if suddenly everything would have to be "Made in America" and all oil imports, "Made in China" manufactured goods etc were stopped (or very heavily taxed)?

A. In the short term, the US and world economy would completely collapse. Many nations depend on the US as a market for their goods, and without the consumers in other nations, the US would have excess of some goods but not enough of other things which we import (such as oil, electronics). Not to mention that the world's financial markets would seize up as dollars were no longer available to exchange for local currencies, and banks were unable to lend to businesses and individuals. Almost immediately there would be massive black markets abroad to buy goods made in the USA, and massive black markets in the US to buy foreign made goods. In the medium term -- assuming that the people did not revolt and overthrow the government that imposed… [cont.]
