Table explanation
Statistics Netherlands collects monthly data on imports and exports of goods. In this table on imports and exports of goods the change of ownership of the goods is decisive, not whether they crossed the Dutch border. The table comprises index figures and changes in terms of percentage of total imports and exports of goods, broken down by value, price and volume. The indices are based on 2021=100. The changes in terms of percentage are compared with the same period in the previous year.
Data available from: 1995 January
Status of the figures:
Data from 1995 up to and including 2021 are final. Data over 2022, 2023 and 2024 are provisional.
Changes as of November 2024:
Data over September 2024 and the third quarter of 2024 have been added. Data over July and August 2024 have been adjusted.
Statistics Netherlands has carried out a revision of the national accounts. The Dutch national accounts are recently revised. New statistical sources, methods and concepts are implemented in the national accounts, in order to align the picture of the Dutch economy with all underlying source data and international guidelines for the compilation of the national accounts. This table contains revised data. For further information see section 3.
Import and export figures may be adjusted as new or updated source information from the monthly international trade statistics and producer prices becomes available. In addition, the figures are adjusted retrospectively to fit those of imports and exports of goods in the quarterly National Accounts and the annual National Accounts. A complete revision of the National Accounts is carried out once every five years.
When will new figures be published?
Six to seven weeks after the end of the month under review.

Description topics
- Indices
- Index figures, base year 2021=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 2021=100.
Although not necessarily so, in most cases imports and exports of goods will be accompanied by transport of these goods across the international border. The goods are valued at the exporter's customs border. For Dutch imports this means that the value of the imported goods includes transport and insurance costs to the exporter's border; for Dutch exports the value of the goods includes transport and insurance costs to the Dutch border.- Original
- Original value index figures, base year 2021=100.
Not adjusted for differences in the number of working days.
- Working day adjusted
- Working day adjusted value index figures, base year 2021=100.
JDemetra+ 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.
- Price
- Price index figures, base year 2021=100.
Not adjusted for differences in the number of working days.

- Year-on-year change
- Change compared to the same period in the previous year.
Change in a variable indicates the growth rate with respect to the same period of the previous year as a percentage. Statistics Netherlands calculates this on the basis of non-rounded figures.- Value
