Niger

Republic of the Niger is the official name of Niger, in West Africa. The capital is Niamey. The currency is the West African CFA franc (XOF).

Niger is listed here in African Union and UEMOA. A bloc is left off when membership is in doubt.

Niger is landlocked. Seaborne cargo moves through Cotonou and Lomé. Those are transit ports, not domestic seaports.

Population, output and inflation on this page are the latest World Bank values. Exports, imports and partners are UN Comtrade merchandise figures when the public preview published a row. The currency line uses the European Central Bank reference rate, or the official peg where the currency is fixed.

World Bank merchandise exports were $1.9 billion in 2025. Merchandise imports were $2.7 billion in 2025. These are goods totals, not a forecast. The product and partner tables, when shown, are the UN Comtrade breakdown of the same trade.
