Import to Lithuania

Lithuania is a country in Northern Europe. It's one of the three Baltic states, it is situated along the southeastern shore of the Baltic Sea, to the east of Sweden and Denmark. It is bordered by Latvia to the north, Belarus to the east and south, Poland to the south, and Kaliningrad Oblast to the southwest. Lithuania's capital and largest city is Vilnius and the estimated country's population is 3 million people.

Lithuania well-being depends heavily on trade, particularly with other republics of the former Soviet Union. In 2000, total Lithuania imports were valued at $5.5 billion, and exports at $3.8 billion. In the mid-to-late 1990s, Lithuania started to develop more active trading with Western nations, thus reducing its reliance on trade with former Soviet republics. Trade with the West increased from 15% to 60% between 1990 and 1995, while trade with former Soviet republics fell from 78% in 1990 to 40% in 1995. But we still see that the major importing partner of Lithuania is Russia and Asian countries.

Statistics say that 56% of imported goods in Lithuania in 2011 came from the EU countries - 37% from CIS countries. Russia dominates imports (33% of total 2011 import volume), then followed by Germany (10%), Poland (9%) and the neighboring Baltic country of Latvia (7%). 

A significant part of Lithuania's imports is comprised of energy - that's why we see why the country's imports depend on Russia so much.

Lithuanian main imports are commodities, like mineral products, machinery and equipment, transport equipment, chemicals, textiles, clothing, metals, food products, vehicles and petroleum products.
