Abstract：A high level development of producer services is an important feature of advanced economies. According to the strict definition of the producer service industry, this paper designs a preparation method of producer service industry input-output table which separates the producer service industry from other services, and adapts the 2014 input output table of seven countries of the United States, Germany, France, Russia, China and India, and implement a international comparative analysis of these economies. We discover that (1) a universal law is that the proportion of producer service products in the intermediate input of developed economy is significantly higher than that of China and other developing economies; (2) the proportion of the value added of the producer service industry in GDP of China is close to that of the developed economies, and is significantly higher than that of India; (3) the value added rates of the producer service industry of all economies are little difference; (4) The proportion of producer services products in the intermediate input of service industry, namely tertiary industry, is significantly higher than that of secondary industry; (5) The proportion of producer services products in intermediate input in India is higher than that in China, and the value-added rate is significantly higher than that in China except in the industrial sector. (6) The value added of producer service industry takes up one third of GDP of the main developed countries.
