Foreign trade – exports and imports of goods

Official statistics of Sweden

Upcoming publishing: 2024-04-26

The statistics cover Sweden's foreign trade in goods broken down by country and type of goods classification. The combined nomenclature (CN) provides the most detailed level, with 9 400 goods groups. SITC and SPIN refer to more general goods classification.

From 2023 onwards, a new threshold applies for companies being obliged to report data to Intrastat (intra-EU trade). The threshold is raised for arrivals from SEK 9.0 million to SEK 15.0 million, but remains unchanged for dispatches (SEK 4.5 million). This leads to more companies falling below the arrival threshold and fewer companies being obliged to report information on intra-EU arrivals to Statistics Sweden. A higher proportion of the data therefore needs to be estimated and the uncertainty of the detailed data increases. The import data published for 2023 will be based on less reported information than previous years and the tables showing data adjusted for non-response will rely more on estimates than data from previous years.
