Over time, numerous approaches have sought to understand and explain the causal relationship between exports and macroeconomic indicators, with extensive studies conducted on the subject. This research examines the relationship between exports and economic growth using panel data analysis at the provincial level in Türkiye, offering a unique perspective compared to traditional country-level analyses. Given that international trade is often studied at the national or enterprise level, this province-focused approach provides distinctive insights. The study covers the period from 2004 to 2020 and employs the Westerlund ECM Cointegration Test, Panel ARDL, and Dumitrescu &amp; Hurlin Causality Test as analytical methods. The findings reveal both cointegration and bidirectional causality between provincial exports and economic growth. Furthermore, increases in exports positively impact economic growth in both the short and long term. Notably, the effect is more pronounced in provinces with well-developed tourism and industrial sectors.</p></abstract><abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Экспорт играет ключевую роль для экономического развития стран, особенно – для развивающихся. Существует множество подходов, помогающих понять и объяснить причинно-следственную связь между экспортом и макроэкономическими показателями. В настоящем исследовании проведена оценка взаимосвязи между экспортом и экономическим ростом с использованием панельного анализа данных на уровне именно турецких провинций, а не всей Турции в целом. Учитывая, что международная торговля часто исследуется на национальном уровне или уровне предприятий, этот подход, ориентированный на даннные по провинциям, представляет особую значимость. Исследование охватывает период с 2004 по 2020 гг. и в качестве аналитических методов использует тест коинтеграции ЕСМ Вестерлунда, панельную модель ARDL и тест причинности Думитреску и Херлина. Результаты показывают как коинтеграцию, так и двунаправленную причинно-следственную связь между экспортом из провинций и экономическим ростом. Кроме того, увеличение экспорта положительно влияет на экономический рост как в краткосрочной, так и в долгосрочной перспективе. Примечательно, что эффект более выражен в провинциях с хорошо развитым туризмом и промышленным сектором.</p></abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Exports, Economic Growth, Export-led Growth Model, Province Export, Province Economic Growth, Regional Development</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>экспорт, экономический рост, модель экспортоориентированная модель роста, экспорт из провинций, экономический рост провинций, региональное развитие</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body/><back><ref-list><ref id="en-ref1"><label>1</label><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Adedapo, O.
