This paper presents a tabular survey of 146 empirical studies for 39 countries, plus 8 studies
for multiple countries, that use transaction level data on exports or imports of firms. I hope
this survey is useful for readers who want to get an impression of the huge number of
different topics that have been investigated with transaction level data for a large number of
countries already; who want to learn whether transaction level data have already been used
for a particular (maybe, their own) country, by whom they have been used to investigate
which topics, and what the important results found are; who have access to transaction level
data and an idea how to use them, and who want to find out whether others pursued the
same or a similar topic already; who want to compare results from their own study based on
transaction level data to results from other (similar, neighbor) countries and who are looking
for suitable studies; who have access to transaction level data and who are looking for
studies based on data from other countries that they can replicate with their data to uncover
and investigate differences across countries, or to contribute to the unravelling of stylized
facts that hold across countries (and time).
