Statistics Netherlands collects monthly data on imports and exports of goods. In this table on imports and exports of goods the change of ownership of the goods is decisive, not whether they crossed the Dutch border. The table comprises index figures and changes in terms of percentage of total imports and exports of goods, broken down by value, price and volume. The indices are based on 2010=100. The changes in terms of percentage are compared with the same period in the previous year.

Data available from 1995 January up to and including 2018 July.

Status of the figures:
Figures for 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 are provisional. The other figures are definite. Since this table has been discontinued, provisional data will not become final.

Changes as of 11 October 2018:
None. This table has been discontinued.
Statistics Netherlands has carried out a revision of the national accounts. New statistical sources and estimation methods have been used during the revision. Therefore this table has been replaced by table Imports/exports; change of ownership; volume and price, changes. For further information see section 3.

When will new figures be published?
Not applicable anymore.
