Summary/Abstract: Contemporary research into the theory of international trade focuses on introducing new qualitative, structural and institutional aspects. One of the topics that seems to be gaining popularity is the issue of the complexity of bundles of exported goods, its determinants, and the effects it has on other elements of national economies. This paper is devoted to the problem because it is still unexplored by the Polish literature. The first section serves as an introduction. The second one contains a survey of literature on the significance of complexity for the economy, especially economic growth and structural transformations. The third section presents the determinants of complexity. The fourth one presents modern trends of complexity distribution among countries and groups of goods. The final section provides a conclusion to the discussion.
