The container port throughput in South Korea in 2023 amounted to 30 003 141 TEU, which is 5.27% more than in 2022, when it was 28 502 044 twenty-foot equivalent units. This is the first year of growth after a decline. According to the UNCTAD statistics, since 2010, this indicator has increased in 1.56 times. The lowest container port throughput was recorded in 2010, with a value of 19 203 476 TEU. The maximum container throughput of ports of South Korea was in 2023, when it reached 30 003 141 TEU.
The data includes container port throughput for ports with time series that are complete since 2010 or that can be made complete by repeating an observation for a maximum of three years after the original observation. This means that country level time series are comparable over time but that the coverage of ports may differ between countries.

About indicator
This table presents the estimated total number of containers handled, per country, expressed in twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs). A TEU represents the volume of a standard 20 feet long intermodal container used for loading, unloading, repositioning and transshipment. A 40-foot intermodal container is counted as two TEUs. Data published are country totals which may conceal the fact that some minor ports are not included. The data includes container port throughput for ports with time series that are complete since 2010 or that can be made complete by repeating an observation for a maximum of three years after the original observation. This means that country level time series are comparable over time but that the coverage of ports may differ between countries.
