TECHNICAL NOTES
BASIC INDICATORS
Trade per capita is estimated as an economys total trade of goods and commercial services (exports + imports, balance of payments basis) divided by the population. It is calculated on the basis of data for the three latest years available. Trade to GDP ratio is estimated as an economys total trade of goods and commercial services (exports + imports, balance of payments basis) divided by GDP, on the basis of data for the three latest years available. GDP is measured in nominal terms and with market exchange rates. Real GDP, exports and imports of goods and services (national accounts based), refer to data at constant prices or volume gures based on 2000. Ranks in world trade of merchandise and commercial services are dened rst referring to European Union (EU (25)) members as individual traders and second referring to the EU (25) as one trader (i.e. excluding individual EU (25) members).
TRADE POLICY
The Trade Policy Review date indicates the date of the latest policy review for the economy considered. The tariff binding coverage corresponds to the number of the Harmonized System (HS) subheadings containing at least one bound tariff line divided by the respective total number of HS subheadings of the corresponding version of the HS nomenclature. For MFN bound tariffs, the simple average of ad-valorem (AV ) duties refers to the simple average of AV and calculable ad-valorem equivalent (AVE) of nal bound HS 6-digit duties. For MFN applied tariffs it refers to the simple average of AV and calculable AVE of MFN applied HS 6-digit duties. The non-AV duties as a percentage of total tariff lines refer to the share of HS six-digit subheadings subject to non-AV duties. When only part of the HS six-digit subheading is subject to non-AV duties the percentage share of these tariff lines is used. Agricultural goods according to the AOA (WTO Agreement on Agriculture) denition refer to HS chapters 1 to 24 (excluding sh and sh products) and a number of manufactured agricultural products (for further information see The Legal Texts, The Results of the Uruguay Round of Multilateral Negotiations, WTO). This denition does not correspond to the denition of agricultural products presented in the breakdown of merchandise trade by main commodity group (see below). Import duties collected in total tax revenue and import duties collected to total imports (goods and commercial services) are estimated in general on the basis of data for the three latest years available. The number of GATS services sectors with commitments has been established by the WTO Secretariat on the basis of available information and in the light of the Services Sectoral Classication List (MTN.GNS/W/120). The total number of sub-sectors is in the order of 160. In the absence of a GATS schedule for the EU (25), the total number of services sub-sectors listed in the statistical proles of the individual EC-12 members and of the EU (25) is that of the existing European Communities (EC) schedule. For EU (25) members the number of dispute rulings refers to the EC gure which also includes rulings concerning EU (15) which were established prior to 1 May 2004. For EU (25) members the number of notications outstanding (NO) refers to the sum of NO of the EC and of the individual economy. The number of contingency measures in force is based on information made available to relevant committees (annual reports G\L\791, G\L\795 and G\L\798). Please note that there is no obligation on WTO Members to notify the expiry or termination of safeguard measures.

MERCHANDISE TRADE (customs-based statistics)

The share in world total exports and imports of merchandise for individual economies is calculated using world trade including intra-EU (25) trade. For the EU (25) as one trading reporter the share is calculated on the basis of world trade excluding intra-EU (25) trade. Breakdown by main commodity group according to the ITS (WTO International Trade Statistics) denitions: Agricultural products refer to food (SITC Rev. 3 sections 0, 1, 4 and division 22) and raw materials (SITC Rev. 3 divisions 21, 23, 24, 25 and 26). It differs from the Agricultural goods AOA denition (see above). Fuels and mining products include ores and other minerals; fuels and non-ferrous metals. Manufactures refer to iron and steel, chemicals, other semi-manufactures, machinery and transport equipment, textiles, clothing and other consumer goods. Please note that due to the products not classied in the three main product groups, the sum of shares may not add up to a 100.
