In 2024, China accounted for 49.1% of Cambodia's total imports, according to the General Department of Customs and Excise (GDCE). That amounted to $3.7 billion, marking a 30.9% year-on-year increase. The vast majority of these imports were raw materials, machinery and semi-finished goods critical to Cambodia's export-oriented manufacturing sector -- particularly textiles and apparel.
