The country operates a largely state-controlled trade environment, with China being the primary destination for its natural gas exports via the Central Asia–China pipeline.

AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Turkmenistan's exports are dominated by natural gas, crude oil, and petroleum products, along with cotton fiber and textiles.
Turkmenistan's government controls most major industries and trade flows, which can create barriers for foreign businesses including limited market access, currency restrictions, and non-transparent regulatory processes.
China is by far the largest trading partner, particularly for natural gas. Russia, Turkey, and UAE are also significant partners for imports and other exports.
