{{Short description|none}}{{update|date=September 2017}}(File:Top 5 Net Importers of Natural Gas.png|thumb|Trends in the five nations with the largest annual net imports of natural gas)This is a list of countries by natural gas imports mostly based on The World Factbook weblink" title="https:/-/web.archive.org/web/20120129084649weblink">weblink and EIA weblink. 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.
