The value of Iran’s non-oil exports during the first five months of the current Iranian calendar year (March 21, August 22) reached $19.3 billion, according to the data released by the Islamic Republic of Iran Customs Administration (IRICA).
Based on IRICA data, Iran exported about 55.9 million tons of non-oil goods valued at $19.3 billion in the mentioned five months, registering an 8.55-percent decline in value and a 26.56 percent rise in terms of weight, IRNA reported.
According to the IRICA, the main reason for the decline in the country’s export value in the mentioned period is the decrease in the global price of petrochemical products which account for a big share of the Iranian export basket.—Tehran Times
