Country Search Help

The Search by Country option allows you to see the "Major Importers" for a given country of origin. Countries may be selected (one at a time) from an alphabetical picklist.

Country of Origin - Imports of All Products

When the country selection module is accessed from the homepage or through the side menu, the list of 'Major Importers' will pertain to all products imported from the selected country.

Country of Origin - Imports of a Specific Product

When a product has already been selected using the Product Search option, it is also possible to view the "Major Importers" of that specific product by country of origin. In these cases, the picklist of countries will only include the countries for which there are imports - and not the complete list of countries in the world.

Country Classification

The identity of the countries appearing in the Country of Origin Selection list is a reflection of the country classifications used by Statistics Canada to tabulate trade statistics.

It should be noted that :

• The country classifications used in Canadian Importers Database, which are derived from ones employed by Statistics Canada, are designed for the purposes of economic geography and therefore do not reflect the views or intentions of the Government of Canada on international issues of recognition, sovereignty or jurisdiction.
• To assist search and display in selection lists, country names appear in short form. For example, the People's Democratic Republic of Laos will simply appear as Laos for ease of use. Similarly, the Republic of Korea will appear as Korea, South in the list and so on.
