This page has a list of countries by Container port traffic (TEU: 20 foot equivalent units), according to officially-recognized international sources compiled by the World Bank. Port container traffic measures the flow of containers from land to sea transport modes, and vice versa, in twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs), a standard-size container. Data refer to coastal shipping as well as international journeys. Transshipment traffic is counted as two lifts at the intermediate port (once to off-load and again as an outbound lift) and includes empty units.
