DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL AFFAIRS

The Department of Economic and Social Affairs of the United Nations Secretariat
is a vital interface between global policies in the economic, social and
environmental spheres and national action. The Department works in three main
interlinked areas: (i) it compiles, generates and analyses a wide range of economic,
social and environmental data and information on which Member States of the
United Nations draw to review common problems and to take stock of policy
options; (ii) it facilitates the negotiations of Member States in many
intergovernmental bodies on joint courses of action to address ongoing or
emerging global challenges; and (iii) it advises interested Governments on the
ways and means of translating policy frameworks developed in United Nations
conferences and summits into programmes at the country level and, through
technical assistance, helps build national capacities.

PREFACE
The 2016 International Trade Statistics Yearbook (2016 ITSY) is the sixty-fifth edition of this
yearbook. Its objective is to inform about the detailed merchandise and services imports and
exports of individual countries (areas) by commodity and service categories and by partner
countries (volume I), the world trade in individual commodities (3-digit SITC groups and 11
main EBOPS categories) (volume II) and total world merchandise trade up to the year 2016. The
two volumes are prepared at different points in time during 2017: Volume I - Trade by Country is
made electronically available in June, and Volume II - Trade by Commodity, in December, as the
preparation of the tables in Volume II requires additional country data which, normally, become
available later in the year.

Beginning with 2013 edition, trade in services data was introduced to the International Trade
Statistics Yearbook: Volume I - Trade by Country. Therefore, the content and format of the
yearbook were redesigned to take into account new additions of graphs, tables and analytical
text. The data used in the tables and graphs in both volumes of the yearbook are taken at a
specific time (May 2017) from the publicly available UN Comtrade (https://comtrade.un.org)
database. Users are advised to visit the database for additional and more current information as
it is continuously updated.

The International Trade Statistics Yearbook is prepared by the Trade Statistics Branch of the
Statistics Division, Department of Economic and Social Affairs of the United Nations
Secretariat. Under the general supervision of the Chief of Branch, Ronald Jansen, the programme
manager is Markie Muryawan and the chief editor is Habibur Rahman Khan, assisted by
Marjorie Imperial-Damaso and Bekuretsion Amdemariam, and Htu Aung who have the leading
role in the processing of merchandise and services data, respectively. Habibur Rahman Khan,
Kenneth Iversen, Nancy Snyder, Karoly Kovacs, Salomon Cameo and Markie Muryawan
provided valuable contribution to the inclusion of trade in services data and the improvement of
production processes. However, all staff of the branch are involved in the generation of the data
and the review/validation of the yearbook. Markie Muryawan, Salomon Cameo and Luis
Gonzalez Morales developed the original software which is maintained by Melissa Paca and
Daniel Buenavad.

INTRODUCTION

1. The International Trade Statistics Yearbook: Volume I - Trade by Country, provides an


overview of the latest trends of trade in goods and services of most countries and areas in the
world. The publication is aimed at both specialist trade data users and common audience at
large. The presented data, charts and analyses will benefit policy makers, government agencies,
non-government organizations, civil society organizations, journalists, academics, researchers,
students, businesses and anyone who is interested in trade issues.

2. The main content of the yearbook is divided into two parts. Part 1 consists of two detailed
world data tables on merchandise trade. One presents total merchandise imports and exports by
countries, areas and regions in a time series up to the latest year, the other shows world
merchandise exports by group of commodity and by provenance and destination in many smaller
time series sub-tables. Part 2 contains the country trade profiles for most countries and areas in
the world. The profiles offer an insight into the merchandise and services trade performance of
individual countries and areas by means of brief descriptive text, concise data tables and charts
using latest available data. For further information on data availability, please see the sources
section of this Introduction.

3. The yearbook is also made available online at the publications repository of the UN
Statistics Division (https://unstats.un.org/unsd/publications). For more detailed and latest
available data, please visit UN Comtrade, which is the source of the information presented in the
yearbook, and which is continuously updated.

2016 International Trade Statistics Yearbook, Vol. I vii


Concepts and definitions of International Merchandise Trade Statistics

4. The merchandise trade data in this Yearbook have been compiled by national statistical
authorities largely complying with the United Nations recommended International Merchandise
Trade Statistics, Concepts and Definitions 2010 (IMTS 2010).1 The main elements of the
concepts and definitions are:

i. Coverage: As a general guideline, it is recommended that international


merchandise trade statistics record all goods which add to or subtract from the stock of
material resources of a country by entering (imports) or leaving (exports) its economic
territory. The general guideline is subject to the clarifications provided in IMTS 2010, in
particular, to the specific guidelines in chapter 1 concerning the inclusion or exclusion of
certain categories of goods.

ii. Time of recording: As a general guideline, it is recommended that goods


be recorded at the time when they enter or leave the economic territory of a country.

iii. Statistical territory: The statistical territory of a country is the territory


with respect to which trade data are being compiled. The definition of the statistical
territory may or may not coincide with the economic territory of a country or its customs
territory, depending on the availability of data sources and other considerations. It
follows that when the statistical territory of a country and its economic territory differ,
international merchandise trade statistics do not provide a complete record of inward and
outward flows of goods.

iv. Trade systems: Depending on what parts of the economic territory are
included in the statistical territory, the trade data-compilation system adopted by a
country (its trade system) may be referred to as general or special.

a) The general trade system is in use when the statistical territory coincides with the
economic territory. Consequently, it is recommended that the statistical territory of a
country applying the general trade system comprises all applicable territorial elements. In
this case, imports include goods entering the free circulation area, premises for inward
processing, industrial free zones, premises for customs warehousing or commercial free
zones and exports include goods leaving those territorial elements;

b) The special trade system is in use when the statistical territory comprises only a particular
part of the economic territory, so that certain flows of goods which are in the scope of
IMTS 2010 are not included in either import or export statistics of the compiling country.
The strict definition of the special trade system is in use when the statistical territory
comprises only the free circulation area, that is, the part within which goods may be

1
At its forty-first session, held from 23 to 26 February 2010, the Statistical Commission adopted the revised
recommendations International merchandise trade statistics: concepts and definitions 2010 (IMTS 2010) which
provide very important amendments while retaining the existing conceptual framework contained in the previous
recommendations. The publication is available under Statistical Papers, Series M No. 52, Rev.3 (United Nations
publication, Sales No. E.10.XVII.13) and electronically at: https://unstats.un.org/unsd/pubs/gesgrid.asp?id=449.

disposed of without customs restriction. Consequently, in such a case, imports include
only goods entering the free circulation area of a compiling country and exports include
only goods leaving the free circulation area of a compiling country.

c) The relaxed definition of the special trade system is in use when (a) goods that enter a
country for, or leave it after, inward processing, as well as (b) goods that enter or leave an
industrial free zone, are also recorded and included in international merchandise trade
statistics

v. Classification: It is recommended that countries use the Harmonized


Commodity Description and Coding System (HS) for the collection, compilation and
dissemination of international merchandise trade statistics as suggested by the Statistical
Commission at its twenty-seventh session (22 February to 3 March 1993).2 The
Harmonized System was adopted by the Customs Co-operation Council in June 1983,
and the International Convention on the Harmonized System (HS Convention) entered
into force on 1 January 1988 (HS 1988).3 In accordance with the preamble to the HS
Convention, which recognized the importance of ensuring that the HS be kept up to date
in the light of changes in technology or in patterns of international trade, the HS is
regularly reviewed and revised. The sixth edition, HS 2017, came into effect 1 January
2017.4 The Standard International Trade Classification (SITC)5 which was in the past
used by countries in data compilation and reporting has been recognized for its continued
use in analysis.6

vi. Valuation: At its fifteenth session, in 1953, the Economic and Social
Council, taking the view that trade statistics must reflect economic realities,
recommended that the Governments of Member States of the United Nations, wherever
possible, use transaction values in the compilation of their national statistics of external
trade or, when national practices are based on other values, endeavour to provide
supplementary statistical data based on transaction values (Economic and Social Council
resolution 469 B (XV)). To promote the comparability of international merchandise trade
statistics and taking into account the commercial and data reporting practices of the
majority of countries, it is recommended that: (a) The statistical value of imported goods
be a CIF-type value; (b) The statistical value of exported goods be an FOB-type value;
however, countries are encouraged to compile FOB-type value of imported goods as
supplementary information. FOB-type values include the transaction value of the goods
and the value of services performed to deliver goods to the border of the exporting
country. CIF-type values include the transaction value of the goods, the value of services
performed to deliver goods to the border of the exporting country and the value of the

services performed to deliver the goods from the border of the exporting country to the
border of the importing country.

vii. Partner country: It is recommended that in the case of imports, the


country of origin be recorded; and that in the case of exports, the country of last known
destination be recorded. The country of origin of a good (for imports) is determined by
rules of origin established by each country. The country of last known destination is the
last country - as far as it is known at the time of exportation - to which goods are to be
delivered, irrespective of where they have been initially dispatched to and whether or not,
on their way to that last country, they are subject to any commercial transactions or other
operations which change their legal status. Further, it is recommended that country of
consignment be recorded for imports as the second partner country attribution, alongside
country of origin; the compilation of export statistics on the country of consignment basis
is only encouraged, depending on a countrys needs and circumstances.

5. The pages containing the country profiles (Part 2 of this publication) indicate the trade
system, valuation and partner attribution each country is following. For more detailed
information on national practices in the compilation and dissemination of international
merchandise trade data please go to https://unstats.un.org/unsd/tradereport/introduction_MM.asp.

Concepts and definitions of Statistics of International Trade in Services

6. The trade in services data in this Yearbook have been compiled by national statistical
authorities or central banks largely complying with the Manual on Statistics of International
Trade in Services 2010 (MSITS 2010).7

7. The main elements of the concepts and definitions of MSITS 2010 are:

i. Definitions: In general, MSITS 2010 respects the 2008 SNA use of the
term services, which is defined as follows (2008 SNA, para. 6.17):

a) Services are the result of a production activity that changes the conditions of the
consuming units, or facilitates the exchange of products or financial assets. These types
of service may be described as change-effecting services and margin services,
respectively. Change-effecting services are outputs produced to order and typically
consist of changes in the conditions of the consuming units realized by the activities of
producers at the demand of the consumers. They can also be referred to as
transformation services. Change-effecting services are not separate entities over which
ownership rights can be established. They cannot be traded separately from their

7
At its forty-first session, held from 23 to 26 February 2010, the Statistical Commission adopted the revised
Manual on Statistics of International Trade in Services (MSITS 2010) , which sets out an internationally agreed
framework for the compilation and reporting of statistics of international trade in services and align with the
revisions of well-established revised international statistical standards. The publication is available under Statistical
Papers, Series M No. 86, Rev.1 (United Nations publication, Sales No.E.10.XVII.14) and electronically at
https://unstats.un.org/unsd/tradeserv/TFSITS/msits2010.htm.

x 2016 International Trade Statistics Yearbook, Vol. I


production. By the time their production is completed, they must have been provided to
the consumers.

b) MSITS 2010 defines international trade in services as trade in services between


residents and non-residents of an economy, as well as the supply of services through
foreign affiliates established abroad and the supply of services through the presence of
foreign individuals, either as foreign service suppliers themselves or as employees of a
foreign service supplier.

Importantly, the services data included in this Yearbook only reflect trade in services
between residents and non-residents.

ii. Concept and definition of residence: The residence of an institutional unit


is the economic territory with which it has the strongest connection, constituting its centre
of predominant economic interest. Each institutional unit is a resident of one and only
one economic territory, as determined by its centre of predominant economic interest. An
institutional unit is resident in an economic territory when there exists, within the
economic territory, some location, dwelling, place of production, or other premises on
which or from which the unit engages and intends to continue engaging, either
indefinitely or over a finite but long period of time, in economic activities and
transactions on a significant scale. The location need not be fixed as long as it remains
within the economic territory. Actual or intended location for one year or more is used as
an operational criterion. While the choice of one year as a specific period is somewhat
arbitrary, it is adopted to eliminate uncertainty and facilitate international consistency.
More specific criteria for determining residence are given in the MSITS 2010.

iii. Valuation: The market price is used as the basis for valuation of
transactions in international trade in services. Market prices for transactions are defined
as amounts of money that willing buyers pay to acquire something from willing sellers.
The exchanges are made between independent parties and based on commercial
considerations only and are sometimes called at arms length transactions. These
transactions will generally be valued at the actual price agreed between the supplier and
the consumer.

iv. Time of recording of transactions: The appropriate time for recording


transactions in services is when they are delivered or received (the accruals basis).
Some services, such as certain transport or hotel services are provided within a discrete
period, in which case there is no problem in determining the time of recording. Other
services are supplied or take place on a continuous basis, for example, construction,
operating leasing and insurance services. When construction takes place with a prior
contract of sale, the ownership of the structure is effectively transferred progressively as
the work proceeds. When services are provided over a period of time (such as freight,
insurance and construction), there may be advance payments or settlements at later dates
for such services. The provision of services should be recorded on an accrual basis in
each accounting period, that is to say it should be recorded when the service is rendered
and not when the payment occurs.

2016 International Trade Statistics Yearbook, Vol. I xi


v. Framework and scope: MSITS 2010 recommends that the Sixth Edition of
the Balance of Payments and International Investment Position Manual (BPM6)8
recommendations on the principles of recording (regarding residence, valuation, time of
recording, currency of recording and conversion) should be followed. The Extended
Balance of Payments Services Classification (EBOPS) is a more detailed classification
than that of BPM5 for international trade in services between residents and non-residents,
by breaking down a number of the BPM5 service items. The main components of the
EBOPS classification are presented in paragraph 7.vii below.

vi. Partner country: It is recommended that the breakdown by partner economy


for services transactions between residents and non-residents be recorded, the aim being
to report partner detail, first, at the level of services trade as a whole and, second, for each
of the main types of services in EBOPS and (as a longer-term goal) for the more detailed
EBOPS items. Partner country data for trade in services are not included in this
publication, as most countries do not currently compile these data by partner country.

vii. Classification: In 1996, OECD and Eurostat, in consultation with IMF,


developed for use by their members a more detailed classification than that presented in
the IMFs Balance of Payments Manual (BPM5) for international trade in services
between residents and non-residents, by breaking down a number of the BPM5 service
items. This more detailed classification is termed the Extended Balance of Payments
Services Classification (EBOPS). The EBOPS classification was published in 2002 in the
MSITS 2002 and was subsequently revised to the EBOPS 2010 classification, as
published in the MSITS 2010. The services data in this Yearbook follow the EBOPS
2002 classification (which corresponds to the BPM5 recommendations) due to the fact
that many countries have not yet transitioned to the EBOPS 2010 classification (which
corresponds to the BPM6 recommendations).

The 11 main EBOPS 2002 standard services components (as presented in the MSITS
2002) are:9

a) Transportation: covers all transportation services that are performed by residents of one
economy for those of another and that involve the carriage of passengers, the movement
of goods (freight), rentals (charters) of carriers with crew, and related supporting and
auxiliary services. Some related items that are excluded from transportation services are
freight insurance (included in insurance services); goods procured in ports by non-
resident carriers and repairs of transportation equipment (both are treated as goods, not
services); repairs of railway facilities, harbours and airfield facilities (included in

construction services); and rentals or charters of carriers without crew (included in
operational leasing services).

b) Travel: covers primarily the goods and services acquired from an economy by travelers
during visits of less than one year to that economy. Includes business and personal travel,
which includes health-related expenditure (total expenditure by those travelling for
medical reasons), education-related expenditure (i.e., total expenditure by students), and
all other personal travel expenditure.

c) Communications services: covers postal and courier services (which cover the pick-up,
transport and delivery of letters, newspapers, periodicals, brochures, other printed matter,

satellite, electronic mail, facsimile services etc., including business network services,
teleconferencing and support services). It does not include the value of the information
transported. Also included are cellular telephone services, Internet backbone services and
on-line access services, including provision of access to the Internet.

d) Construction services: covers work performed on construction projects and installation by


employees of an enterprise in locations outside the territory of an enterprise.

e) Insurance services: covers the provision of various types of insurance to non-residents by


resident insurance enterprises, and vice versa. These services are estimated or valued by
the service charges included in total premiums rather than by the total value of the
premiums.

f) Financial services: covers financial intermediation and auxiliary services, except those of
life insurance enterprises and pension funds (which are included in life insurance and
pension funding) and other insurance services that are conducted between residents and
non-residents. Such services may be provided by banks, stock exchanges, factoring

g) Computer and information services: covers hardware and software-related services and
data-processing services; news agency services include the provision of news,
photographs, and feature articles to the media; and database services and web search

h) Royalties and license fees: covers international payments and receipts of franchising fees
and the royalties paid for the use of registered trademarks and international payments and
receipts for the authorised use of intangible, non-produced, non-financial assets and
proprietary rights (such as patents, copyrights and industrial processes and designs) and
with the use, through licensing agreements, of produced originals or prototypes (such as
manuscripts, computer programs, and cinematographic works and sound recordings).

k) Government services, not included elsewhere (n.i.e.): covers government transactions


(including those of international organizations) not contained in the other components of
EBOPS as defined above. Included are all transactions (in both goods and services) by
embassies, consulates, military units and defence agencies with residents of economies in
which the embassies, consulates, military units and defence agencies are located and all
transactions with other economies. Excluded are transactions with residents of the home
economies represented by the embassies, consulates, military units and defence agencies,

Description of world trade tables of part 1 (Tables A and D)

8. Table A: Total merchandise trade by regions and countries or areas in U.S. dollars10: It
provides a breakdown of merchandise imports, exports and trade balance for world, regional
groupings, selected economic and/or trade groupings and individual countries or areas.

9. Table D: World merchandise exports by provenance and destination in U.S. dollars: In


addition to total, table D also provides details by SITC sections or groupings of sections by
regions and countries or areas (brief description of SITC sections can be found in the country
profiles in Part 2).

As of March 2017, information on Trade System as presented in this table is collected by UNSD from national
statistical authorities and refers to the most recent period. For information on Trade System for previous years, see
country metadata on comtrade.un.org.

10. The totals of imports and exports presented in table A on one hand and table D and the
country profiles on the other hand are not necessarily the same as they are based on different
sources, namely International Financial Statistics (IFS) published monthly by the International
Monetary Fund (IMF), and UN Comtrade. These databases apply different data collection
systems with different aims, procedures, timetable and sources for update and maintenance.
Nevertheless, discrepancies are in general minor and usually do not affect the overall
comparability of information provided in these tables. A systematic comparison of the figures
from both sources (which includes the description of known and relevant conceptual differences)
is available at (https://unstats.un.org/unsd/trade/data/tables.asp#annual). Overall, the discrepancy
in the world total or world aggregate of exports in table A and table D is around 0.5 percent or
less in average, which is minor, given the differences between the two sources.

11. A slightly different version of Table A containing quarterly and monthly data is
published on a monthly basis as table 34 in the United Nations Monthly Bulletin of Statistics
(MBS).11 Updated, although different versions of Table D, are published as table 40, 41 and 42
in the July, September and November editions of the MBS.12 An updated version of these tables
will be published in Volume II of the 2016 ITSY which will be produced later this year.

Description of tables and graphs of Country profiles in part 2

12. Part 2 contains detailed data for individual countries or areas. In addition, given the
economic importance of the European Union (EU), separate pages have been included for the
external trade of the EU (with its 28 members) as a whole.

13. Not all countries have data up to 2016 and not all countries have data for imports and
exports for all years. The inclusion of a country (or area) in part 2 requires that at least some data
are available for any year from 2012 onwards. Depending on the availability of data, the
following tables and graphs usually appear for each country or area:

14. Graph 1: Total merchandise trade, by value: This graph presents the trend of merchandise
imports, exports and trade balance over the last 14 years.

15. Graph 2: Total services trade, by value: This graph presents the trend of services imports,
exports and trade balance over the last 14 years.

16. Graph 3: Exports of services by EBOPS category: This graph presents the shares of total
exports of services accounted for by each service category for the latest year such data are
available.

17. Graph 4: Merchandise trade balance by MDG Regions: This graph presents, in the most
recent year for which information on exports and imports are available, the trade balance by

regions. The regional groupings were created for the purpose of this publication and are
presented in paragraph 38.

18. Graph 5: Partner concentration of merchandise trade: This graph shows the partner
concentration of imports and exports for the latest available year. Graph presents the top 25
partners which usually account for a very large share of exports or imports for most countries.
On the horizontal axis from the center to the right are the cumulative percent of exports and from
the center to the left the cumulative percent of imports. On the vertical axis is the cumulative
number of partners ranked by total value of exports and imports in a decreasing order. So, on
each side, the first bar represents share accounted for by the largest partner; second bar
represents share accounted for by the largest two partners and so on.

19. Graph 5 also presents the Herfindahl-Hirschman (HH) Index for imports and exports
which is a measure of concentration. In the case of exports (imports), the HH index is the sum of
squares of the partners share of total exports (imports):
2
n
Xi
HH Index
i 1 X

20. n is the number of trading partners for exports (imports) and Xi is the value of exports
(imports) to partner country i and X is the total value of exports (imports). The lower the HH
index, the lower the partner concentration, and vice versa. If there is only one trading partner the
HH index would equal 1. 13

21. It should be noted that the HH index for a given countrys exports (imports) depends on
the distribution of share of exports (imports) among its partners. Hence a country with few major
partners might have a lower HH index value, indicating low concentration, than a country with
more partners if the former has its trade more evenly distributed among its partners than the
latter.

22. Graph 6: Imports of services by EBOPS category: This graph presents the shares of total
imports of services accounted for by each service category for the latest year such data are
available.

23. Table 1 and table 4: Top 10 export and import commodities: These tables present the top
10 commodities in terms of 4-digit HS headings for exports and imports, respectively, using the
aggregate of trade values for the last three reporting years as available. It should be noted that
exports contain re-exports and imports contain re-imports. So one or more top exports of a
country may be commodities which the country does not actually produce. Data on re-exports
and re-imports can be found in UN Comtrade. For countries which reported the last three years
of data in HS 2012 the data in these tables follow HS 2012. For other countries the data in these
tables may be presented in earlier or later HS editions. For the convenience of users the last
13
For the application of HH index to measure partner concentration in merchandise trade, no thresholds are known
to be established. Users might wish to define a specific limit of the HH index to indicate low concentration and a
limit to indicate high concentration. However, based on the analyses of the data presented in the yearbook, following
thresholds were applied to determine level of concentration of merchandise trade, both exports and imports: HH <
0.15 Diversified; 0.15 < HH < 0.25 Moderately concentrated; HH > 0.25 Highly concentrated.

xvi 2016 International Trade Statistics Yearbook, Vol. I


column shows the SITC group (3 digits) that corresponds to the HS heading. The SITC group is
identified based on the correlation and conversion tables between HS and SITC, Rev 3.14

24. In addition to trade values, the table 1 and table 4 also present unit values. Unit values are
expressed in U.S. dollars (US$) per unit (kg, unit, Megawatt-hours (Mwh), pair, litre, carat etc.).
The calculation of unit values on the heading level requires the availability of value and quantity
information for all of the underlying detailed data (6-digit subheadings). In some cases the
quantity information for some sub-headings was estimated (see paragraph 32) and the unit value
for the heading appears in italics. If quantity information appears incorrect it is not shown.

25. Table 2 and table 3: Merchandise Exports and Imports by SITC sections: These tables
show the structure of exports and imports in the latest available year by SITC sections in terms
of value, share of the total, growth in comparison with the previous year and annual average
growth for the last four years which is calculated as the geometric mean.

Sources

26. Data on the total merchandise imports and exports of countries (or areas) presented in
world table A are mainly taken from International Financial Statistics (IFS) published monthly
by the International Monetary Fund (IMF). They are supplemented with data from other sources
such as national publications and websites and the United Nations Monthly Bulletin of Statistics
Questionnaire for the following countries: Andorra, Bermuda, Cayman Islands, Cuba, Gibraltar,
Montenegro (beginning 2006), Niue, Russian Federation (beginning 1994), Serbia and
Montenegro (before 2006), State of Palestine, Turkmenistan, Turks and Caicos, Tuvalu and
Uzbekistan. Data on world merchandise exports by provenance and destination presented in
world table D are derived from UN Comtrade data supplemented by estimated data for non-
available countries and areas.

27. The data in the country profiles in part 2 of the publication (country trade profiles) are
obtained from data directly submitted by countries to the United Nations Statistics Division
(UNSD). All data published in the country profiles are available in UN Comtrade.

28. In some cases, original country data are received via international and regional partner
organizations, such as the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD),
the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the International Monetary
Fund (IMF), the International Trade Centre (ITC), the Caribbean Community (CARICOM)
Secretariat, the Common Market of Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA), the Economic
Community of West African States (ECOWAS) and the UN regional commissions such as the
Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) and the Economic and
Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA). Data for the European Union (EU-28) is
received from the Statistical Office of the European Union (Eurostat).

29. Table A shows data as available by end of May 2017 and table D uses data as available
on UN Comtrade by end of May 2017. The country tables and graphs contain data available in

14
The conversion tables are available on the website of UNSD at

UN Comtrade by end of May 2017.

Method of Estimation

30. Estimates for missing data in Table A are made in order to arrive at regional totals, but
estimated data are not shown. The estimation process is automated using quarterly year-on-year
growth rates for the extrapolation of missing quarterly data, unless quarterly data can be
estimated using available monthly data within the quarter. Regional totals containing estimated
data are printed in bold. Estimates are reviewed and adjusted where necessary.

31. Data for missing reporters in Table D are estimated either through the extrapolation of the
data of the two adjacent years, or, if this is not possible, through the use of the data reported by
the trading partners, that is, through mirror data. Mirror statistics are also used in case the partner
distribution or confidential data make it necessary to adjust the reported data. All estimates are
reviewed and adjusted where necessary.

32. For part 2, the country trade profiles, modifications to the received data are only made in
cases where the provided data are obviously incomplete, in particular in the case of unreported
petroleum oils exports in merchandise data. Quantity information that is missing or does not
comply with the World Customs Organizations recommendations are estimated and flagged in
UN Comtrade accordingly. For data processed before June 2009 some quantity information that
were identified as extreme meaning far outside a pre-defined normal range were replaced
in UN Comtrade with estimates. The estimation of quantities is either based on the countrys
own data or uses standard unit values (SUVs) which are derived from the available information
for all countries in the previous year.

Conversion of classification

33. Conversion of classification for merchandise data: All countries follow recommendation
to report their detailed merchandise trade data according to the Harmonized Commodity
Description and Coding System (HS) (see paragraph 4.C.v). In order to provide comparable time
series data in UN Comtrade for all countries, the data reported in the latest HS classification is
converted into earlier editions of the HS, and to corresponding or earlier versions of the Standard
International Trade Classification (SITC).15 The latest edition of the HS classification was its
sixth and was released in 2017. The commodities in this publication are mostly presented
according to the one-digit sections of SITC, Rev.3 as the SITC sections provide a limited set of
economically meaningful main categories.16 In addition, data according to SITC, Rev.3 is
available for long time series. In two tables, commodities are presented in terms of four-digit
headings of the HS, often according to the 2012 edition of HS but in some cases also in earlier or

15
Detailed information on the data conversions used for UN Comtrade can be found on the website of the United
Nations Statistics Division at:
https://unstats.un.org/unsd/trade/conversions/HS%20Correlation%20and%20Conversion%20tables.htm.
16
Standard International Trade Classification, Revision 3, Statistical Papers, Series M No.34/Rev.3, (United
Nations publication, Sales No. E.86.XVII.12). SITC, Revision 4 was accepted by the United Nations Statistical
Commission at its thirty-seventh session in March 2006 (see Official Records of the Economic and Social Council,
2006, Supplement No. 4, (E/CN.3/2006/32), chapter III, para. 26 (b)). Yet, it will require several years until a time
series of data according to SITC, Revision 4 will be sufficiently long for publication.

xviii 2016 International Trade Statistics Yearbook, Vol. I


later HS editions.17 The HS headings provide a meaningful description of traded commodities at
a relatively detailed level and also allow the presentation of quantity information.

34. Conversion of classification for trade in services data: For services data, many countries
are still compiling data according to the EBOPS 2002 classification and, therefore, all services
data presented in this Yearbook are presented according to this classification. For the cases in
which a country has transitioned to the EBOPS 2010 classification (as presented in MSTIS 2010)
and did not provide UNSD with data based on EBOPS 2002, and for those countries for which
the IMF is the only data source,18 the data were converted to the EBOPS 2002 classification in
order to maintain consistency across countries. The conversion was based on the IMFs BPM5-
to-BPM6 Conversion Matrix (available at http://www.imf.org/external/pubs/ft/bop/2008/08-
10b.pdf).19

Currency conversion and Period

35. Currency conversion: For both merchandise and trade in services data in this publication,
conversion of values from national currencies into United States dollars is done by means of
currency conversion factors based on official exchange rates. Values in currencies subject to
fluctuation are converted into United States dollars using weighted average exchange rates
specially calculated for this purpose. The weighted average exchange rate for a given currency
for a given year is the component monthly factors, furnished by the International Monetary Fund
in its IFS publication, weighted by the value of the relevant trade in each month; a monthly
factor is the exchange rate (or the simple average rate) in effect during that month. These factors
are applied to total imports and exports and to the trade in individual commodities with
individual countries. The conversion factors applied to the data presented in table A are
published quarterly in the UN Monthly Bulletin of Statistics at
https://unstats.un.org/unsd/mbs/default.aspx and are also available at
https://unstats.un.org/unsd/trade/data/tables.asp. For data published on UN Comtrade the applied
conversion factors are available in a countrys metadata on UN Comtrade.

36. Period: Generally, data refer to calendar years; however, for those countries which report
according to some other reference year, the data are presented in the calendar year which covers
the majority of the reference year used by the country.

Due to data limitations for some countries and for some periods, conversion from EBOPS2010 classification to
EBOPS2002 classification may not always be complete, which may result in a break in series. Such instances are
noted in footnotes on the individual country pages.

37. Country nomenclature: The naming of countries (or areas) in this publication follows in
general the United Nations Standard Country or Area Codes for Statistical Use.20 The names and
composition of countries as reporter are changing over time. Also, countries rarely follow the
identical nomenclature in the recording of partner information. For example when former
geographical entities commonly referred to in national statistics have changed, countries may
introduce the corresponding changes in their statistics at different times. In this publication,
wherever possible, areas of the world have been designated the names they currently bear.

It should be noted that, in this publication:

i. Data published for China exclude those for Taiwan Province of China. Data
representing the trade with Taiwan Province, which may have been reported by any
reporting country or area, are included in the grouping Asia, nes. For statistical purposes,
data for China also do not include those for Hong Kong Special Administrative Region
and Macao Special Administrative Region.

ii. Beginning 1 January 2000, Botswana, Lesotho, Namibia, South Africa and
Swaziland provide their international trade statistics separately.

iii. On 4 February 2003, the official name of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia
has been changed to Serbia and Montenegro.

iv. On 3 June 2006, Serbia and Montenegro formally dissolved into two
independent countries: Montenegro and Serbia.

v. On 10 October 2010 the federation of the Netherlands Antilles was formally


dissolved. The former Dutch Caribbean dependency ceased to exist with a change of the
five islands' constitutional status. Under the new political structure, Curaao and Sint
Maarten (Dutch part) have become autonomous countries within the Kingdom of the
Netherlands, joining Aruba, which gained the status in 1986. The islands of the remaining
territorial grouping, alternately known as Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba or the BES
islands, are special municipalities and part of the country of the Netherlands and overseas
territories of the European Union. For statistical purposes, the data for the Netherlands do
not include the BES islands. Data referring to Netherlands Antilles (as a partner) prior to
2011 refer to the former territory which included Curaao, Sint Maarten (Dutch part),
Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba.

vi. On 9 July 2011, Sudan formally dissolved into two independent countries:
Sudan and South Sudan. Data provided for Sudan prior to 1 January 2012 refer to the
former Sudan (including South Sudan). Data referring to Sudan (as a partner) for 2012
are attributed to Sudan excluding South Sudan.

vii. From January 2013 onwards, Saint Barthlemy is no longer part of the
customs territory of France. Therefore, it is recognised as a separate statistical area both
as reporter and partner. Whereas from January 2014 onwards, Mayotte became part of
statistical area of France and it is no longer shown as a reporter or a partner.

38. Regional groupings: This publication uses the earlier version of regional groupings of the
Millennium Development Goal (MDG) Indicator Database which are shown below (for their
composition, see table A and https://comtrade.un.org/pb/groupings.aspx). The category Other
applies only to the presentation of data by trading partner and consists of Antarctica, Bunkers,
Free Zones, Special Categories (confidential partner) and Areas nes.:

39. Aggregations: All regional aggregations are calculated as the sum of their components.
This also includes the regional and world totals presented in table A (in bold) which, up to the
2007 edition of this yearbook and in the tables currently published in the United Nations Monthly
Bulletin of Statistics, are calculated by subtracting re-exports from the imports and exports.

40. Additional country groupings: The composition of the additional country groupings
which are used in world table A is as follows:
