Abstract: In this paper, we studied the effect of institutional quality on the export of developing countries by using a panel data model for 34 countries over the period 1984 to 2009. The results showed that monetary policies (such as devaluation), economy openness and even high level of labor productivity cannot create improvement in export growth of these countries. Indeed, institutional quality indicators (such as macroeconomic stability, transparency, guaranteed contracts and property rights) are the most important determinants of export in these countries.
