NOTES:Unless otherwise noted, the information presented is based on U.S. Census Bureau data for the Customs territory of the United States. The territory includes the 50 states, District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.Imports for consumption are a combination of entries into the U.S. for immediate consumption and withdrawals from Customs bonded warehouses for consumption. These data reflect the actual entry into U.S. consumption channels of commodities that originated outside the United States.Exports may include merchandise of both domestic and foreign origin. Census defines exports of “domestic” merchandise to include commodities, which are grown, produced, or manufactured in the United States. For statistical purposes, domestic exports also include commodities of foreign origin which have been changed in the U.S. from the form in which they were imported, or which have been enhanced in value by further manufacture in the United States.Re-exports of “foreign” products are commodities which have entered the U.S. as imports and not sold, which, at the time of re-export, are in substantially the same condition as when imported. Items imported for sale in the U.S. but later resold overseas, however, are recorded as exports of domestic goods rather than as re-exports.A product of foreign origin is transformed into a domestic good when the imported item loses its foreign identity through further sub-stantial manufacturing. This transformation generally produces a good with a different trade classification. For example, fish sticks cut from imported fish blocks, when exported to a foreign country, are classified as domestic for statistical purposes.The value of imports presented is the “Customs value.” It is based on the value of the product in the country of origin as appraised by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection, and excludes import duties, freight, insurance, and other charges incurred in bringing it to the United States. Export and re-export value is equivalent to f.a.s. (free alongside ship) at the port of export, based on the transaction price, including freight, insurance, and other charges incurred in placing the merchandise alongside the carrier. The value excludes the cost of loading, freight and subsequent insurance.

NOTES:(1) Includes landings of foreign caught tuna in American Samoa. Such landings are not included in census data since American Samoa is outside the U.S. Customs territory. The value of these landings is estimated. (2) less than 500 kilos or $500(3) Not reported in kilos. Quantity is reported in: number of individual pieces, square meters,and in some cases, quantity is not required to be reported.
NOTE: Exports from 1957 to present include exports of foreign fishery products. Imports from 1963 to present include landings of foreign caught tuna in American Samoa. The value of these foreign landings is estimated.
