Botswana is a landlocked southern African country and SACU member whose economy is heavily dependent on diamond exports, which account for the majority of its export revenue. The country is one of the world's largest producers of gem-quality diamonds through the Debswana joint venture. Botswana routes most of its trade through South African ports, particularly Durban and Port Elizabeth, given its landlocked geography.

Diamonds are by far Botswana's dominant export, with the country ranking among the world's top producers of gem-quality diamonds, primarily through the Debswana mining partnership.
As a landlocked country, Botswana relies on road and rail corridors through South Africa and Zimbabwe to access seaports, with the Port of Durban being the primary maritime gateway for its imports and exports.
Botswana is a member of SACU, which applies a common external tariff across all member states, and is also part of SADC, providing preferential trade access within the broader southern African region.
