Explanation of symbols

Dataset is not available.


In this table, the Dutch import and export value according to border crossing are classified by the divisions 51-65 of the Standard International Trade Classification (SITC). The data is broken down further by continents and countries according to the Geonomenclature (GEONOM).

Data available from: January 2015.

Status of the figures:
The figures on international trade in goods are provisional for a longer period of time, as they can be adjusted on the basis of new or current source information. The provisional figures become revised provisional in the fourth quarter after a reporting year. The revised provisional figures will become definitive in the fourth quarter of the following year.

Changes as of May 2, 2024:
The provisional figures for the month of December 2023 and the year 2023 have been added. The months July 2023, August 2023 and September 2023 have also been adjusted.

When will new figures be published?
New figures become available about four months after a reporting month.
