Eswatini ranks 32 out of 190 countries globally and is the highest-ranked country in Africa in terms of trading across borders.

Eswatini has no direct sea access, although the ports of Durban, South Africa and Maputo, Mozambique, are accessible by rail and road. A dry port in Matsapha Industrial Town facilitates the road-to-rail connection.

The country recently completed construction of a new and bigger international airport, King Mswati III.  There are multiple commercial flights daily to and from O.R. Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg, and the Civil Aviation Authority plans to establish regular commercial service to and from Durban and Cape Town within the next year.  The airport is located at Sikhphe area 30 miles east of Manzini City

Eswatini’s main roads are in good condition.
