Description topics

Indices
Index figures, base year 2010 = 100.

An index compares the value of a variable in a certain period with the value of the same variable in the base period. The index of this base period is 100.
Value
Value index figures, base year 2010 = 100.

The statistical value is the value of the goods at the moment they cross the border. For imports from EU countries this value is inclusive of freight and insurance charges up to the Dutch border. For imports from non-EU countries this value is inclusive of freight and insurance charges up to the border of the European Union. For exports this value is the value of the goods inclusive of freight and insurance charges up to the Dutch border.
Original
Original value index figures, base year 2010 = 100.

Not adjusted for differences in the number of working days.
Working day adjusted
Working day adjusted value index figures, base year 2010 = 100.

Census X12-ARIMA is used to adjust the value and volume figures for differences in the number of working days. The method corrects for national holidays, leap days and the difference between weekdays and weekends.
