  • Values are in euros as Eurostat publishes them. Quarterly totals, changes on a year earlier, rankings and value per kg are calculated by Cambridge China Bridge from the monthly figures. Chapters 99 (other products) and 00 (confidential totals) are excluded.
  • Eurostat revises recent months; the page is rebuilt monthly and always shows the latest figures Eurostat has published.
  • Weight-based € per kg ranks categories; it does not measure freight cost directly, which depends on volume.
