Freight transport on the Rhine

In Switzerland, freight transported by water is mostly limited to Rhine shipping. Its importance for Swiss foreign trade should not be underestimated, despite the fact that it has declined considerably in recent decades. In 2024, the Swiss Rhine Ports handled 5.4 million tonnes of goods, i.e. roughly 8% of all Swiss imports and exports. The most important goods transported by Rhine shipping are petroleum products for import and waste/recyclable materials for export.
