In 2023, Transistor Imports Into Hong Kong Decrease by 5% to $8.7 Billion

Hong Kong Transistor Imports

In 2023, supplies from abroad of transistors, other than photosensitive transistors decreased by -16.3% to 88B units, falling for the second year in a row after two years of growth. The total import volume increased at an average annual rate of +1.7% over the period from 2013 to 2023; however, the trend pattern indicated some noticeable fluctuations being recorded in certain years. The most prominent rate of growth was recorded in 2021 when imports increased by 21% against the previous year. As a result, imports attained the peak of 119B units. From 2022 to 2023, the growth of imports failed to regain momentum.

In value terms, transistor imports declined slightly to $8.7B (IndexBox estimates) in 2023. Overall, total imports indicated a strong expansion from 2013 to 2023: its value increased at an average annual rate of +7.2% over the last decade. The trend pattern, however, indicated some noticeable fluctuations being recorded throughout the analyzed period. Based on 2023 figures, imports increased by +88.1% against 2016 indices. The most prominent rate of growth was recorded in 2014 when imports increased by 33%. Imports peaked at $9.2B in 2022, and then contracted in the following year.Hong Kong Transistor Imports By Country (Million USD)
