Table explanation


This table shows how much revenue different industries in the Netherlands generate from their own exports and from the exports of other sectors. It also shows the associated employment. The information is broken down by exporting industry and supplying industry.

Data available from: 2010.

Status of the figures:
The figures for 2010–2024 are final.

Changes as of 4 November 2026:
This is a new table. In 2024, Statistics Netherlands (CBS) revised the national accounts. As part of this revision, new sources, methods and concepts were introduced into the national accounts to ensure that the picture of the Dutch economy is once again fully aligned with all underlying statistics, sources and international guidelines for compiling the national accounts. This table presents the figures following the revision. For more information, see Section 3.

When will new figures be available?
The figures are updated annually. The new figures are published as final 21 months after the end of the reporting year.

Description topics

Labour volume (total)
The amount of labour used in the beneficiary to produce goods and services for the exports of the exporting sector. This is expressed in labour years.
Value added
The value of all produced goods and services (production value or output) minus the value of goods and services which were used up during this production (intermediate use). The output is valued at basic prices, i.e. the selling price excluding the trade and transport margin and excluding any taxes on products paid and subsidies on products received. The intermediate use is valued at the purchase value excluding non-deductible VAT.
Imports
The imports by the beneficiary sector required to produce inputs for the exports of the exporting sector.

The supply of goods and rendering of services from abroad (by non-residents) to residents.
