re-exports

Ships out again

Re-exports are goods that a country imports and then exports again without significant transformation.

A nation might import electronics from Asia and re-export them to neighboring countries, serving as a trade hub: Singapore's re-exports account for much of its trade volume.

The term appears in trade statistics and economic analysis, distinguishing goods that merely pass through from domestically produced exports.
