Abstract: The article examines the effects of urbanization on the international trade of services, mainly exports and imports. A supply‐side growth model is used to analyze this nexus. Panel data are constructed consisting of 64 countries for a period between 1980 and 2017. The system generalized method of moments approach is used to forecast the role of urban development on exports and imports of services. Results show that urban development generally has significant and positive effects both in exports and in imports of services, whereas in some income and population groups, the signs of coefficients are negatively significant.
