Qatar chemical trade
Chemicals, plastics and rubber (HS chapters 28 to 40) that Qatar exported and imported, as reported by its trade partners, with its largest HS codes and partner countries.
Qatar does not publish detailed six digit trade figures. Its figures for 2019 to 2024 are mirror data, built from what the 28 major economies reported about their trade with Qatar, so treat them as a lower bound.
