What is the USITC DataWeb (International Trade Commission) MCP Server?
Connect to the USITC DataWeb to retrieve official US international trade data. This server allows AI agents to perform complex queries on trade statistics, including imports, exports, and trade balances across various classification systems like HS, SITC, and NAICS.
What you can do
- Trade Data Queries — Fetch detailed statistics by commodity, country, and time period using the
query_trade_datatool. - Metadata Exploration — List available data tables, fields, and valid values (like country codes or commodity levels) to build precise queries.
- Classification Support — Work with Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HS), SITC, or NAICS codes at various digit levels.
- Time-Series Analysis — Retrieve annual or monthly data to analyze trade trends over time.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your USITC DataWeb API Key

Frequently asked questions
How do I find the correct country code for a trade query?
You can use the list_metadata_values tool. Provide the table ID (e.g., 'imports') and the field ID for countries to see a full list of valid USITC country codes.
What classification systems are supported for commodity queries?
The server supports 'hs' (Harmonized System), 'sitc' (Standard International Trade Classification), and 'naics' (North American Industry Classification System) via the query_trade_data tool.
Can I see what data tables are available before querying?
Yes, use the list_metadata_tables tool to retrieve a list of all available data tables and their identifiers from the USITC DataWeb API.
How does LlamaIndex connect to MCP servers?
Use the MCP client adapter to create a connection. LlamaIndex discovers all tools and wraps them as query engine tools compatible with any LlamaIndex agent.
Can I combine MCP tools with vector stores?
Yes. LlamaIndex agents can query USITC DataWeb (International Trade Commission) tools and vector store indexes in the same turn, combining real-time and embedded data for grounded responses.
Does LlamaIndex support async MCP calls?
Yes. LlamaIndex's async agent framework supports concurrent MCP tool calls for high-throughput data processing pipelines.
