Côte d'Ivoire's imports stood at $29.1B in 2025, a rise of +$4.9B from 2023. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach $29.1B by 2025. Côte d'Ivoire ranked 83rd globally.
Côte d’Ivoire’s imports have expanded dramatically over the past two decades, rising from 7,371,118,516.68 in 2005 to an all‑time peak of 29,086,947,182.68 in 2025, placing the country at rank 83 globally. This three‑fold increase reflects the nation’s growing integration into regional and global value chains, driven by heightened demand for machinery, fuels and consumer goods as the economy diversified beyond cocoa. The upward trajectory mirrors that of peers such as Ghana, whose 2025 import total of 26,868,688,797.14 situates both economies among the higher importers in West Africa, while still lagging behind Kenya’s 30,808,618,821.87. The surge coincides with periods of robust fiscal consolidation and infrastructure investment, suggesting that continued public‑private partnership projects and expanding manufacturing capacity could sustain import growth. However, any slowdown in global commodity prices or a reversal in domestic investment could temper the upward trend, potentially stabilising import volumes at a lower growth rate.
