List of countries by natural gas imports

none

This is a **list of countries by natural gas imports ** mostly based on The World Factbook https://web.archive.org/web/20120129084649/https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/rankorder/2182rank.html and EIA http://www.eia.gov/naturalgas/importsexports/annual/. For informational purposes several non-sovereign entities are also included in this list.
Many countries are both importers and exporters of natural gas. For instance, although Canada appears on the list below as the world's fourteenth-largest gas importer, It exports more natural gas than it imports, and so is a net exporter of natural gas. See: List of countries by natural gas exports.
