Days needed to export a standard container of goods, for each country (World Bank Doing Business, 2015 methodology).

Days to complete all procedures to export a standard container of goods by sea. These are the last figures published with this method (up to 2015). The World Bank discontinued the Doing Business report in 2021, so these figures come from its last editions (2019 or 2020 per country) and the year is shown on each card. They describe the largest business city and a standard case study, not every situation.
