Import and export worldwide Import and export are generally important pillars of a country’s economy. The trade balance of a country shows the relationship between the values of a country’s imports and exports. If the balance is positive, i.e. if the value of exports is higher than that of imports, it is called a trade surplus. If it is negative and import values exceed export values, it represents a trade deficit. Worldwide trade is regulated by the World Trade Organization (WTO). It provides a framework for trade agreements and helps in resolving disputes. Since its foundation in 1995, more than 150 countries have become members of the WTO and obligated themselves to follow its regulations. The worldwide export volume in trade since 1950 has tripled, and a similar development can be observed in the worldwide import trade volume since 1950. Europe is leading the ranking regarding the value of worldwide export volume of trade by region, but the value of goods exported by Asia is almost up to par. Both continents are also the top destination regions of inter-regional trade worldwide. The United States, China, and Germany are the leading import countries worldwide, and also the leading export countries worldwide, albeit in a different order. The top traded goods and commodities are oil and fuel, electronic equipment, and machinery. The volume of commodities traded worldwide has increased dramatically over the past few years.

The United States may be said to have had an adequate set of import and export statistics only since 1821. During the years 1795-1801, import value figures were estimated by the Secretary of the Treasury and the figures for the years 1790-1794 and from 1802-1820 were apparently estimated many years later. In the case of exports, it was required by statute that the dollar value in the statistics should be the value reported by the master of the vessel on which the goods left the country, but it was common practice for the U.S. Collectors of Customs to adjust this reported value quite arbitrarily. By an Act approved February 1820, ``to provide for obtaining accurate statements of the Foreign Commerce of the United States,'' a provision was made for the preparation of statistical accounts of the commerce of the United States with foreign countries by the Register of the Treasury to show the kinds, quantities and values of all articles exported to and of all articles imported from each foreign country. These early and simple beginnings of foreign trade data have developed into the current comprehensive export and import statistical program. The statistics are used extensively by both the public and private sectors of the country.
