Exports, imports and net trade of goods
Millions of SEK, current prices. Trend
In foreign trade in goods, trend series are reported for a selection of groups of commodities and countries, as well as the net trade balance (imports, exports, trade in goods balance). The trend is estimated based on a modelling of the original series in current prices using the X12-ARIMA method, adjusted for calendar effects. The trend highlights long-term tendencies in the time series at the relevant point in time.
Definitions and explanations
Last month’s import and export values in trade with the EU are estimates based on data provided by a large subset of companies that trade with the EU. Most (95 percent) of the deviation between these estimates and the subsequent outcome lies within the range of SEK -2 billion and SEK 1 billion for both imports and exports.
Import and export values for trade in goods with non-EU countries are based largely on data from Swedish Customs.

Definitions and explanations
The statistics about the Swedish foreign trade with other EU countries are missing information about the country of origin. As a consequence the information about partner country on imports is equal to the country of consignment in the Swedish foreign trade in goods statistics. Commodities which originate from a non-EU country but are imported to EU (properly EC) via another EU country get this EU country as the country of consignment in the Swedish import statistics. Therefore one may claim that the information about the Swedish import from EU is overestimated.
