Table explanation


This table shows the use of Dutch goods imports. The Netherlands imports a diverse array of goods. A portion of these imports undergoes minimal processing before being exported, the so-called imports for re-export. Another segment is directly intended for domestic consumption, labeled as imports for direct domestic expenditure. The remaining portion is designated for domestic production, which may ultimately be consumed within the Netherlands or exported. This latter category represents imports for intermediate use.
Imports are categorized by product group (CPA) and country of consignment. Only the fifty largest suppliers of Dutch goods imports from 2015 to 2022 are included in the table as countries of consignment.

Data available from: 2015.

Changes as of 5 july 2024:
