History of customs statistics
Customs statistics of Russia's foreign trade has a rather long way of development. It is impossible to unambiguously determine the date of its origin, however, in 1693-1694. the first customs books were created, which give a complete and detailed picture of foreign and domestic trade at the end of the 17th century.
Modern customs statistics is part of the customs business in the Russian Federation (RF), studies and analyzes the quantitative side of the phenomena and processes that occur in foreign trade.
One of the main areas of customs statistics are: the operational accounting of customs payments, the fight against smuggling, currency control, non-trade turnover and tracking violations in the field of customs rules.
Remark 1
Customs statistics of foreign economic activity is an important component of the general statistics of Russia.
Tasks and objectives of customs statistics
Remark 2
The main task of customs statistics is to provide information on how the foreign economic activity of the country is developing. The objects of its accounting are goods and services that make up the country's exports and imports.
The composition of statistics of foreign economic relations includes:
- customs statistics,
- service statistics.
In turn, customs statistics are divided into:
- customs statistics of foreign economic relations,
- special customs statistics.
The subject of study of customs statistics is the statistics of foreign trade, foreign trade turnover in the country, the quantitative ratio of exports and imports in the country in value terms, including the study of the geography of exports and imports. In other words, customs statistics study countries of export and import, including possibly potential countries. The study of the economic component of other countries helps in determining the potential for further cooperation and interaction.
Based on customs statistics, countries are identified, ties with which adversely affect the economic condition of the country. Therefore, in the future, based on the analysis of customs statistics, such ties are broken or sanctions are imposed.
The customs control authorities collect and process information about the goods transported across the customs border, and publish customs statistics data to provide the highest authorities with the necessary information on the state of Russia's foreign trade, its trade and balance of payments.
Customs statistics are characterized by their own goals corresponding to the tasks set. The objectives of customs statistics are:
- control of revenues to the federal budget of customs duties and taxes,
- providing the highest authorities and other state bodies with the necessary statistical information on the state of the foreign trade of the Russian Federation,
- formation of a report and analysis of the state of the Russian Federation, its balance of payments and the economy as a whole.
The objects of observation are subjected to analysis in customs statistics. The objects of observation in customs statistics are understood as export and import goods that the importer or exporter indicates in the Commodity Nomenclature of Foreign Economic Activity used when declaring goods in a particular customs regime.
The main activity of customs statistics is the analysis of incoming data from customs authorities. In addition to the main activity, the scope of customs statistics includes secondary activities. Customs statistics specialists keep records of the following data:
- information about imported and exported non-monetary gold, silver and other precious metals that do not act as a means of payment,
- information on the import and export of securities, banknotes that are not in circulation,
- accounting for goods that are provided to the UN technical support funds or donated as gifts or other assistance,
- accounting of sold and purchased bunker fuel, and other food materials for domestic ships, aircraft and freight transport,
- accounting for goods that are rented for a period of more than one year with the full cost, if the calculation is based on the full cost at the time of import or export of the goods.
The objects for observation are determined by the State Customs Committee. The objects of customs statistics include goods subject to statistical observation and accounting. In addition, this committee determines the procedure and methods for accounting for partner countries with which there is interaction on import and export issues. The committee's specialists determine the threshold in statistical observation and prescribe a list of mandatory indicators that are taken into account in customs statistics.
Accounting methods for customs statistics
The most accurate method in customs statistics is the quantitative method, which most fully reflects the volume of international trade. Quantitative accounting is carried out by net weight.
Definition 1
Net weight is the net weight of the goods, which is taken into account without external and internal packaging.
In addition, the statistical evaluation is affected by the valuation. Statistical observations are made on the basis of imported and exported goods from the territory of the state, the customs declaration is analyzed, which indicates detailed information about the goods.
The uniqueness of the collection of statistical data lies in the fact that when filling out the declaration, digital codes are used that allow you to automate data recording. Goods are accounted for by the country from which they were delivered. If during the process of export or import the country could not be found out, then the export is reflected by the country of sale, import by the country of purchase, respectively.
Definition 2
The country of sale or purchase is understood as the territory where the organization or firm that sold or purchased the goods is actually located, regardless of its nationality.
Customs statistics is a very important component for any country. The correct work of this state body allows further analysis of the country's foreign economic activity.
The Customs Service has been publishing in the public domain in the format of a database information on exports and imports of goods with monthly updates for several years. Not all marketers and analysts are familiar with this service, so we publish detailed instructions for using this authoritative source of customs statistics. In our work, we use this information to verify various purchased databases on customs statistics.
So, first of all, let's define the structure and format of the resulting statistics.
Information on the import and export of goods is available both for display on the screen and, most importantly, for export to MS Excel. The tables show the following parameters:
- Code according to the commodity nomenclature of foreign economic activity
- Country of import (or country of destination of export)
- Import recipient region (or region where the exporter is located)
- Month and year of delivery
- Scope of supply (kilograms or tons and an additional unit of measurement, for example, pieces, for those goods for which it is mandatory to fill in the declaration)
- Cost in dollars (statistical cost)
Let's consider the unloading from the customs database using a specific example: what goods are imported to Crimea, which countries are the key suppliers for the enterprises of the republic.
On this page http://stat.customs.ru/apex/f?p=201:1:2129202036071261 ::::: select the parameters on the Data Analysis tab:
Travel direction - Import ,
Period - Year, Choice, 2015
Country - All,
Then we indicate the degree of detail of the goods that we want to see. 2-digit TNVED groups usually mean very large sections in which a whole range of different products is carried. For example, section 70 is “Glass and glassware”, section 07 is “VEGETABLES AND CERTAIN EDIBLE ROOTS AND TUBS”. Optimal for a general analysis of the region are 4-digit groups that give a general idea of the type of imported products.
TNVED level- 4 characters
Federal District - choice, 09-Crimean Federal District
Subject of the Russian Federation in the federal district - all
Value presentation form - million dollars
Weight representation form - tons
By simple transformations, we build a pivot table and get the most popular goods among those imported by the total value of imports in 2015:
TNVED 2309 - Products used for animal nutrition
TNVED 2204-L- Natural grape wines, including fortified wines; grape must other than that of heading 2009
TNVED 0407 - Bird eggs, in shell, fresh, canned or boiled
TNVED 7010-SHT-Bottles, bottles, vials, jugs, pots, jars, ampoules and other glass containers for storage, transportation or packaging of goods; glass canning jars; safety stoppers of glass, stoppers, closures and other similar glassware
TNVED 0702-Fresh or chilled tomatoes
Despite the cooling of relations, Ukraine remains the largest partner in terms of imports of products to Crimea. The most demanded goods are - products used for feeding animals (TNVED 2309), grape wines (TNVED 2204), glass bottles and jars (TNVED 7010).
The second popular trade partner with Crimea is also the closest neighbor - Turkey (this is according to the results of 2015, in 2016 the situation will certainly change). Tomatoes (TNVED 0702), citrus fruits (TNVED 0805) and, oddly enough, eggs (0407) became the leaders in terms of imports among Turkish goods.
Other key suppliers of products to the Crimea are China with fabrics and bicycles, Germany with bread and confectionery, Italy with yachts and furniture.
A more detailed cut can be obtained by any ten-digit TNVED code, region or country, depending on the objectives of the study.
If you need to know suppliers / buyers, contract prices, terms of delivery and other details of import transactions, including data for the last month, you need to on foreign trade.

The development of a business plan involves, among other tasks, studying the market and the competitive environment, analyzing the chosen niche, and collecting statistical data. The main requirements for statistical data are reliability and relevance. What sources can a novice entrepreneur use for analytics? In this article, we will explain in detail what customs statistics are and how to use them.
What is the customs statistics of foreign economic activity
Customs statistics are quite often used in the work of marketers, development directors and other representatives of top management. Customs statistics gives a fairly complete, objective and reliable picture of export-import transactions and other strategically important aspects of the foreign economic activity of our country.
Any exact science begins with the development of methodological foundations of accounting. The methodology of customs statistics and the principles for calculating the main indicators were approved in the last century - in 1994 (Order of the State Customs Committee of Russia dated April 28, 1994 N 180). The fundamental document is called “On the Methodology of Customs Statistics of Foreign Trade of the Russian Federation”. It is based on the norms of international statistics in the field of trade relations, which are determined by the UN Statistical Commission.
The methodology defines the objects of statistics, accounting rules, calculation of indicators, as well as the general principles for the formation of customs statistics, due to the adopted system of accounting for exports and imports in the country.
The activities of the customs authorities are not limited only to the control of exports and imports, therefore, two main blocks are distinguished in customs statistics: statistics of foreign economic relations and special customs statistics. The second direction includes information that is not related to trading operations, namely:
Information and statistics on passenger traffic- the number of individuals who crossed the border of Russia during the reporting period (the number of people entering and leaving);
Information about the international transportation of goods and cargo;
Information of an investigative and law enforcement nature- the number of criminal cases initiated by customs officers, the volume of supplies of contraband products, the number of drugs seized from illegal circulation, etc.;
Information about foreign exchange transactions(currency control statistics), on the import and export of currency values;
Statistics on customs payments, broken down by type.
As well as special customs statistics keeps records of goods that have become state property and ensures control over their transfer to the relevant federal bodies.
In general, it should be recognized that statistics in the customs business in Russia is organized at a fairly decent level. This fact is confirmed by the publication on a regular basis of official reference books on foreign trade statistics. However, such materials are published in all economically developed countries, which pay special attention to the statistics of foreign economic relations.
It is characteristic that today not only state bodies are engaged in the production of reference books on foreign trade statistics. At the same time, publications commissioned by private companies are distinguished by more detailed and detailed information. The study of such materials makes it possible to objectively assess the depth and geographical orientation of foreign economic relations, the structure of exports and imports, and the degree of integration into the world market.
The customs authorities of the Russian Federation have a complete and constantly updated GTD database, which contains detailed information on each cargo customs declaration (date of registration, information about the goods, including quantity and value, data of the consignee and sender, and other information). This database is the basis for the formation of customs statistics.
Customs statistics of the Russian Federation gives a reliable idea of all commodity items in accordance with the FEACN that passed through the border. The analysis of these data makes it possible to assess the volume of exports and imports, identify emerging trends, and determine the short- and medium-term prospects for the development of domestic and foreign markets.
Thus, the study of foreign trade statistics is important for making managerial decisions, choosing a business strategy, assessing the competitiveness of the environment for enterprises that plan to operate or are already operating in the foreign market.
Who needs customs statistics of foreign trade and why
From a business standpoint, customs statistics make it possible to analyze the structure of foreign trade in value and quantity terms, the price level in dynamics, and to identify the main export routes and importing countries.
An experienced analyst, when studying foreign trade statistics, can determine stable market trends for specific commodity items, identify seasonal fluctuations and make a preliminary forecast about the future prospects of the foreign market.
Customs statistics, along with marketing research and other analytical tools, allows you to objectively assess the level of competition in the industry and in a particular region, which means that you can effectively manage risks, diversify your business, and find new sales markets.
In what cases is it advisable to study the customs statistics of foreign economic activity?
Firstly, when creating a new manufacturing enterprise planning to sell products on the foreign market.
Secondly , in the process of planning the expansion of the organization product range and when entering new markets (domestic and foreign).
Thirdly, in the process of developing marketing strategies to search for new geographic flows for the company's products.
Fourth, during analysis and evaluation of the company's activities in the foreign market.
Fifth, in the process of preparing for the implementation of activities associated with the appeal to the customs authorities. For example, when providing intermediary services for organizing exports or imports or as part of international investment cooperation.
Thus, the customs statistics of Russia, the Customs Union and the European Union is an effective tool that gives a comprehensive and objective view of the market situation, as well as allowing you to identify the main market players, find partners and suppliers, and determine the prospects for the industry as a whole.
Key tasks of customs statistics for the state and business
Maintaining customs statistics primarily involves the implementation of a number of tasks of national importance:
Obtaining up-to-date data on the structure of exports and imports, geography of deliveries;
Currency control;
Tracking the timely receipt of customs payments to the budget;
Provision of data for the calculation of the trade and balance of payments of Russia;
Calculation of index indicators (indices of average prices, "conditional trading", etc.);
Development of a system of indicators used to calculate statistical data, as well as accounting methodology and identification of sources for the formation of initial data;
Timely provision of statistical data and necessary information to the relevant government authorities for an objective and high-quality analysis of international trade relations and the economic situation in world markets, making forecasts of foreign economic development, as well as for making decisions on foreign trade policy and other aspects of foreign economic activity. On the basis of the data presented, state bodies also evaluate the effectiveness of the ongoing foreign economic policy, the effectiveness of the measures taken to tariff customs services, and assess economic security;
Timely provision of data and reporting to international organizations (World Customs Organization, UN Statistical Commission, Council of Heads of Customs Services of the CIS) within the framework of concluded agreements on the exchange of statistics;
Following the principle of comparability of customs statistics of Russia and its international partners.
Where do customs statistics come from?
The fundamental source of customs statistics are cargo customs declarations, all information on which is sent to the Federal Customs Service (FCS). Thus, a single GTE base is obtained. Of course, in its original form, the information collected is unstructured and "raw" and not all information in this database is commercially interesting. But it is worth separating the wheat from the chaff, and you can conduct a full analysis of the activities of competitors, for example. As a rule, for marketers, foreign trade managers and heads of commercial enterprises, the following types of data in the total volume of customs statistics are of interest:
Data of consignees and consignors (name and address), as well as actual manufacturers;
The cost of a batch of goods. It is necessary to distinguish between invoice value (in the contract currency) and statistical value (in US dollars);
Quantity, weight or volume of goods, expressed in the relevant units of measurement;
Code of the commodity nomenclature of the goods - in accordance with the reference book of the TN VED;
Description of a batch of goods - can be quite brief (just a few words), some customs declarations provide a detailed description indicating technical characteristics, chemical properties, equipment, etc. This is especially important for goods that are complex in composition;
The date of registration of the goods at the customs post.
We also note that the statistics take into account these data for each foreign trade transaction.
Customs statistics of the FCS allows you to calculate the average price per unit of goods and determine your contract price. To do this, it is necessary to divide the statistical value of the cargo by the number of homogeneous goods in the lot (fruits, cheeses, coffee, building mixtures). Quite often, groups are declared that, although they may have the same TN VED code, differ in price (for example, shoes, bags, dishes, toys, etc.). But nevertheless, among the numerous gas turbine engines it is quite possible to find a batch with the same type of goods.
Where official customs statistics are published free of charge
Despite the fact that customs statistics are of obvious commercial interest, information on the structure of exports and imports can be found in the public domain on the official website of the FCS. This service will be of particular interest to marketers and managers involved in the formation of statistics and analysis of foreign economic activity.
The statistics of interest can be found in the "Data Analysis" section, you need to select the necessary filters and click on the "Show result" button. A tabular form will appear on the screen, in which the following information is displayed in separate columns:
TN VED code;
Importing or exporting country;
The period for which statistical data is selected;
Statistical value in dollars (in thousands or millions of dollars - depending on the selected filter);
Volume in kilograms or tons (for certain goods, the quantity in pieces may be indicated);
The subject of the Russian Federation is the region in which the consignee or consignor is located.
The service on the official website of customs statistics also allows you to upload data to MS Excel.
The website of customs statistics has detailed instructions for users with a step-by-step description of the system.
Of course, processing, structuring, grouping and bringing statistical data into a “readable” form will take a lot of time. It is sometimes easier for interested parties to order a ready-made report for specific requests than to personally understand all the manipulations with tabular forms.
How to analyze customs statistics and select the necessary information
Everyone who has anything to do with customs and foreign economic activity, or at least once looked at reports on customs statistics, is familiar with the international classifier of commodity nomenclature (TN VED). This is a single directory for all customs posts, which contains about 11 thousand codes for different product categories and subgroups.
It would seem that in order to obtain the necessary statistics, one has only to find the required code in the classifier. For a moderate fee, dozens of analytical companies are ready to provide you with a ready-made report on the selected code for any time interval. But not everything is so simple. There are some nuances worth talking about.
The fact is that the nomenclature code does not always exactly match the specific product. In some cases, several closely related product groups may belong to one code, and then the data sample by code will be wider than required. In another scenario, the product can be attributed to different codes, and then the selection of just one will not provide complete information.
It is far from always possible to immediately determine which code the company's products belong to.
For example, a company imports quilted blankets, the foreign trade manager, when filling out the customs declaration, quite naturally indicates the code 9404. But competitors can indicate both this code and the other - “Blankets and travel blankets”, code 6301. Both options are correct and there will be no mistake from the point of view of customs officers. But when analyzing customs statistics, such clarifications can play a big role. If you evaluate the selected market niche for quilts only by code 9404, the data sample will show one number, and if you use two codes (9404 and 6301) in the formation of customs statistics, then the report will differ significantly.
And there are quite a lot of such “traps” according to the classifier. In addition, no one canceled the human factor. Firstly, when filling out a customs declaration, a company may make a mistake in choosing a code, and the customs officer simply does not notice this. Secondly, representatives of the company sending the goods and the customs inspector may have different ideas about the choice of code. For example, a company may declare a shipment under code 1901 "Cocoa-free prepared foodstuffs", while a customs officer may classify them under category 1704 "Sugar confectionery, cocoa-free".
The situation is similar for some other nomenclature codes. For example:
Polyester synthetic fabrics can be declared under code 5512 or 5407;
Food for cats and dogs - 230910 and 230990;
Copiers and devices - 8443 and 8472;
If the customs duty rate is the same for the disputed codes, the officer at the customs post may not bother to choose at all.
But if in such a situation we make a sample of only one code, the statistics will be far from the real numbers quite noticeably. When it comes to a spread of several million dollars, this can no longer be considered a minor error.
But not all products are directly and verbatim listed in the directory. For example, you will not find thermal imagers there if you just enter this word in the search form.
Analytics of customs statistics is a responsible matter and should be approached wisely. How to take into account all the above "features" and make the most objective data sampling? To do this, we propose a two-step principle of information search:
We define a keyword or a list of several words that, in our opinion, should be in the description of consignments of goods;
Running words on statistics. If the search is carried out on our own, we mark all deliveries with the selected keywords. When ordering a report on customs statistics from a third-party organization, it is advisable to determine the list of keywords yourself and provide it to the contractor. Of course, an experienced analyst can assess the situation and determine in which cases a "end-to-end" keyword search is necessary, and when a selection of only one nomenclature code is sufficient. But still, we advise you to take an active part in the preliminary discussion and coordination of the task with the contractor, because who understands the products better than a company representative?
Of course, you need to be prepared for the fact that the actual customs statistics of exports or imports will be far from your imagination. For example, you thought that there were four main players in the market, but according to the report, there were twice as many of them. Or you estimated the market volume at 5-7 million dollars, and statistics say that import supplies in the selected niche exceed 20 million.
To be sure that the ordered report will be informative and useful, before paying for the order, ask the contractor for an express report on the main indicators of customs statistics. Thus, you protect yourself from carelessly done work and wasted money. Express report on customs statistics must contain:
Total trade turnover for all deliveries;
The total number of deliveries for the requested period;
The number of suppliers and buyers.
The completeness of the description of data in cargo customs declarations also directly affects the selection of statistical data.
Highlighting the characteristics of a product in the statistics report or breaking it down by type of product allows you to determine the most popular and popular products in a market niche.
The need for a detailed description also depends on the industry to which the production and sale of a particular product belongs. So, in the automotive field, the list of characteristics is very extensive. For example, the description of a passenger car in the GTD includes the make of the car, model, chassis number, year of manufacture, color, engine type and size, power, and other characteristics.
No wonder that reports on the statistics of imported or exported cars are the most detailed and time-consuming. After all, any characteristic for each delivery must be entered in a separate column of the tabular form. In the language of analysts, this is called "embroidering" the description. The tables themselves are also impressive in size and have a large number of columns.
Not in all industries the description of goods is so detailed. Here are some examples of products that can have a wide range of characteristics:
In medical equipment of commercial interest is the division according to characteristics. For example, X-ray equipment can be of different purposes: devices for computed radiography, mammographs, X-ray therapy devices, and so on. Or, for example, inhalers are steam, ultrasonic, compressor;
In mechanical engineering in reports on statistics, machines are divided according to their purpose: turning, milling, drilling. And also with CNC (numerical program control) and without CNC;
In the glass industry when conducting analytics, special attention is paid to the area of product use: bottles for food and alcohol products, glass containers for medicines and medical purposes;
In the construction field you can find a lot of interesting things. So, for customers of customs statistics, it is interesting to separate the building mix according to its purpose: putty, plaster, mounting and tile adhesives, decorative plaster, waterproofing compounds, soundproofing dry mixes, etc.;
In veterinary medicine of interest is the division of vitamin supplements (premixes) by animal species: for chickens, rabbits, pigs, calves, etc.;
In the fishing industry It is important for customers of statistical reports to know not only the types of products supplied (salmon, mackerel, herring, seafood), but also in what form the goods are delivered: frozen or thawed, whole carcasses or fish fillets, etc.
From the point of view of statistics and analytics, the worst thing is when one word is written in the “Description” column of the customs declaration, for example, “equipment”. And to understand what kind of equipment it is, for what purpose it is intended, is problematic.
It happens that some deliveries are declared with a detailed description, and some - without indicating characteristic features. In the report on customs statistics, deliveries with no characteristics should be recorded separately. It is advisable to discuss this point with the contractor at the initial stage of work. For example, in the analytical part of the report, indicate: 9 percent of the supply of sheet glass goes without specifying its thickness.
Quite often, when filling out a customs declaration, a situation arises when the description of the goods does not fit in the designated column. In this case, the continuation is transferred to the back of the document. Customs statistics take into account all the data of the CCD, including those from back sheets. But such “additional” information (and sometimes it contains the most valuable and significant information) is already formed into a separate database, and obtaining such statistics will require additional costs from the customer.
If a detailed description can be drawn up for your products, customs statistics should be ordered with the information on the back sheets included.
How customs statistics will help determine a promising market niche
Import or export customs statistics are of great importance for diversified trade organizations and holdings, the range of which consists of several hundred or even thousands of positions. The study of customs statistics makes it possible to understand which product categories should be emphasized in the near future, which areas are actively developing, and what kind of goods are in steady demand. For example, a company selling equipment for agricultural enterprises, before placing an order with a foreign supplier, should roughly understand what imported equipment is most in demand among buyers: cultivators, plows, mowers, walk-behind tractors?
It is useful for companies engaged in foreign economic activity to study industry bulletins issued by news agencies. Such analytical reference books are issued, as a rule, once a quarter. The statistics presented in them makes it possible to assess the industry market as a whole, identify structural shifts, and catch the main trends.
Thus, the fact sheet on the engineering industry, released on February 17, 2014, allows us to "read" the following information:
1) In 2013, the export of Russian agricultural machinery increased by 14.2% compared to the previous year. Main export direction: Kazakhstan and Belarus;
2) Significantly increased supplies:
centrifuges (44.54%);
jet engines (32.68%);
mining equipment (26.05%);
nuclear reactors (20.19%);
3) At the same time, there is a noticeable decrease in export deliveries for the following types of products:
spare parts (-15.81%);
special equipment (-7.58%);
internal combustion engines (-7.29%);
4) As for the statistics of imports of engineering products:
import of cars (-18.6%);
import of trucks (-27.6%).
Each entrepreneur expects to find a market niche with the least level of competition, but at the same time with an emerging trend towards growing demand. A thoughtful and detailed study of export and import customs statistics will help to identify such a “gold mine”.
It is quite logical to assume that an increase in the volume of deliveries from abroad and an increase in production rates can serve as a "signal" of growing demand. Of course, you need to track all changes in dynamics, excluding seasonal fluctuations in demand.
However, the control of each nomenclature item in the TN VED reference book is a rather laborious task. We advise you to start with an industry direction. Next, a simple tabular form is formed (most conveniently in MS Excel), in which all promising product categories are entered in the form of a list of TN VED codes and the volumes of imports are indicated, broken down by quarters. Growth (or rate of decline) can be calculated as a percentage. You can find promising directions in almost any industry.
Keeping track of market changes is useful not only for newcomers who are only looking at the industry, but also for old players in an actively growing market. To succeed, a company must grow not only relative to its own performance, but also relative to competitors, for this you need to understand what market share each player occupies. You should not think that you can lose part of the market only if demand falls throughout the industry. It often happens that the market is growing at an accelerated pace, and the company, on the contrary, does not show an increase in sales. For example, the turnover of your company for 2015 and 2016 amounted to approximately 1.5 million rubles annually. At the same time, the market volume for 2016, according to official statistics, is 46 million rubles, which is 40% higher than in 2015 (33 million rubles). Obviously, in this scenario, you have already lost almost half of your share.
The use of customs statistics in an organization requires the study of a large amount of information that the enterprise often does not have. Therefore, it is worth turning to professionals. The information and analytical company VVS is one of those that stood at the origins of the business of processing and adapting market statistics collected by federal agencies. The company has 19 years of experience in providing commodity market statistics as information for strategic decisions that reveal market demand. Main client categories: exporters, importers, manufacturers, participants in commodity markets and B2B business services.

Database "Customs statistics of foreign trade of the Russian Federation" compiled on the basis of the official reference books of customs statistics of the Russian Federation published by the Federal Customs Service of Russia. The processing of statistical foreign economic data was carried out according to the "Unified Methodology for Maintaining Customs Statistics of Foreign Trade and Statistics of Mutual Trade of the Member States of the Customs Union" . The database contains data on the trade of the Russian Federation with foreign countries. The database was prepared on the basis of processing about 3.0 million annual cargo customs declarations submitted to the customs authorities by participants in foreign economic activity. The search is possible in the context of the counterparty countries of the Russian Federation, HS codes and modes of foreign trade operations. The data are formed with the indication of quantitative and cost indicators of foreign economic activity. It is possible to obtain data separately for the regions of the Russian Federation. The database contains information for the period from 2005 to 2019.
