Abstract: This paper calculates the composite export sophistication, domestic technical content and its contribution index of China’s manufacturing export during the period of 1992-2010 after taking processing trade into account with IO table. Then we examine the determinants of export technical content using manufacturing sector’s panel data. The empirical results show that the composite export sophistication and domestic technical content of China manufacturing exports show the tendency of drop-rise while the contribution index of the domestic technical contents tends to decrease during the sample period. The industries with the higher composite export sophistication have relatively lower contribution index of domestic technical contents in general. FDI plays a positive role in promoting the composite export sophistication and domestic technical content while capital deepening makes a positive effect in the long term and the import trade plays a negative effect. Human capital and R&D can improve the spillovers effect of FDI.
