Table explanation


This table shows the values of imports and exports, changes therein and the trade balances of Bonaire, Saba and St. Eustatius. On October 10, 2010, Bonaire, Saba and St. Eustatius became a public body of the Netherlands.

Data available from: the third quarter of 2011 for imports and exports of Bonaire, the fourth quarter of 2011 for imports of St. Eustatius, the first quarter of 2012 for imports of Saba and the second quarter of 2012 for exports of Saba and St. Eustatius. The different starting dates are the result of differences in the start of the observation on the islands.

Status of the figures:
The figures on international trade of Bonaire, Saba and St. Eustatius are subject to adjustment when new or updated sources become available. The figures are therefore provisional when they are first published.
These provisional figures are adjusted approximately five months after the quarter under review. In the second quarter of the current year, the definite figure of the previous year becomes available on StatLine.

Changes as of September 1, 2026:
The preliminary figures for the second quarter of 2026 and the final figures for the fourth quarter of 2022 through the first quarter of 2026 have been added. The figures for the third quarter of 2022 are now final. Corrections have been made to the figures for Bonaire from the third quarter of 2011 through the second quarter of 2022. For these quarters, the source data on mineral fuels (SITC 3) submitted for this island were found to be incomplete in retrospect. This has been corrected in this version.

When will new figures be published?
The figures become available approximately six weeks after the quarter under review.
