United States Airborne Foreign Trade i 4 I ; " L. ,^ :' Ef i -- uli CUSTOMS DISTRICT BY CI COVERAGE This report presents U.S. export and import statis- tics by air in U.S. customs district by continent arrangement. Effective January 1966, some changes were made in customs districts as shown in the January 1966 edition of Schedule D, Code Classifica- tion of United States Customs Districts and Ports Used in Compiling the United States Foreign Trade Statistics. The Schedule D revisions which were made effective January 1966 for statistical purposes reflect changes in the Bureau of Customs field serv- ice organization occurring, for Customs administra- tive purposes, during the first six months of 1966. The districts shown in this report are those having combined exports and imports by air valued at 2 mil- lion dollars or more during the calendar year 1965. Exports These statistics represent exports of domestic and foreign merchandise combined and include government as well as nongovernment shipments of merchandise by air from the United States to foreign countries. The statistics, therefore, include Department of Defense Military Assistance Program--Grant-Aid shipments, Mutual Security Program economic assistance ship- ments, and shipments of agricultural commodities under P.L. 480 (The Trade Development and Assistance Act of 1954, as amended) and related laws. Shipments to U.S. armed forces and diplomatic missions abroad for their own use are not included in the export statistics. U.S. trade with Puerto Rico and U.S. possessions and trade between U.S. possessions are not included in this report, but exports from Puerto Rico to foreign countries are included as a part of the U.S. export statistics. Merchandise shipped through the United States in transit from one foreign country to another, when documented as such through U.S. Customs, is excluded. (Foreign merchandise which has entered the United States as an import and is subsequently reexported is not treated as intransit merchandise, and is included in this report.) The figures in this report exclude exports of household and personal effects, shipments by mail and parcel post, and shipments of airplanes under their own power. For security reasons detailed customs district of lading and country and continent of destination data are not shown in published export statistics for selected commodities, referred to as Special Category commodities. The data for individual customs dis- tricts and continents, therefore, exclude exports of Special Category commodities, but over-all shipping weight and value totals for exports of Special Cate- gory commodities are included in table 1. Effective January 1965, some changes were made in security restrictions, without a corresponding change in restrictions applying to earlier periods. Therefore, the current customs district and continent totals include data for exports of some commodities which are no longer classified as Special Category commod- ities beginning in 1965, but which were not included in customs district and continent totals prior to 1965 since they were classified as Special Category commodities at that time. Because of this, and also because of changes in the content of Special Category commodities effective January 1965, the district and continent statistics currently shown in this report are not completely comparable with those for periods prior to 1965. Further information regarding Special Category commodities may be obtained from the Bureau of the Census. The statistics shown for exports to Canada represent fully compiled data for shipments individually valued $2,000 and over combined with estimated data for shipments valued $100-$1,999 based on a 10-percent sample of such shipments. The statistics shown for exports to countries other than Canada represent fully compiled data for shipments individually valued $500 and over combined with estimated data for ship- ments valued $100-$499 based on a 50-percent sample of such shipments. In addition to these data, esti- mated da'a for shipments valued under $100 are also included in some of the figures shown in the "Total" columns in table 1, as footnoted. These estimates for shipments valued under $100 are not included in the other figures in the table. Since the export figures shown include estimates based on a sample of low-valued shipments, they are subject to some degree of sampling variability.

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE John T. Connor, Secretary W haw, Asst. Secy. Economic Affairs S jREAU OF THE CENSUS .Ross Eckler, Director following is a rough guide to the general level of sampling variability on a 2 chances out of 3 basis of value totals. Usually the higher value figures will have the lower percent sampling errors. De- tailed information on the sampling variability of individual figures is available upon request. Value totals for "Total" and "North America" of: $1,000,000 and over $500,000-$1,000,000 $100,000-$500,000 $20,000-$100,000 Cells of under $20,000 Value totals for continents of South America, Europe, Asia, Australia and Oceania, and Africa of: $300,000 and over $100,000-$300,000 $20,000-$100,000 Under $20,000 Cells of $0 Proportion of cells with sampling variability of: under under under under 20% 2% 5% 10% 20% and over .60 .85 1.00 .45 .65 .70 1.00 .15 .40 .45 .55 .25 .75 Are likely to have sampling variability from $10,000 to $20,000 Are likely to have sampling variability of: Less than 2% Less than 5% with over half of the totals less than 2% Generally less than 10% with over half of the totals less than 5% Generally $1,000 to $2,000 Generally less than $500 The sampling variability, in percentage terms, of shipping weight figures can be approximated by the percent sampling variability of value. Imports These statistics represent general imports which are a combination of imports for immediate consumption and entries into bonded warehouses. The statistics include government as well as nongovernment shipments of merchandise by air from foreign countries to the United States. However, American goods returned by the U.S. armed forces for their own use are excluded. U.S. trade with Puerto Rico and with U.S. posses- sions and trade between U.S. possessions are not included in this report but imports into Puerto Rico from foreign countries are considered to be U.S. imports and are included. Merchandise shipped through the United States in transit from one for- eign country to another, when documented as such through U.S. Customs, is not reported as imports and is excluded from the data shown in this report. (Foreign merchandise which has entered the United States as an import and is subsequently reexported is not treated as intransit merchandise, and is in- cluded in this report.) Imports of household and personal effects, imports by mail and parcel post, and imports of airplanes under their own power are not included. Effective July 1965, the airborne general import statistics reflect fully compiled data for formal entry shipments valued $251 and over. With the ex- ception of the value data shown in the column for "All carriers", the statistics shown in table 2 for value and shipping weight reflect fully compiled data exclusively. The value data shown for "All carriers" represent fully compiled data combined with estimated data for shipments valued $250 or less reported on both formal and informal entries, based on a 1-percent sample of such shipments. (In- formal entrie by definition, contain items valued not more than $250.) Prior to July 1965, the airborne general import sta- tistics reflected fully compiled data for formal entry shipments valued $100 and over. Formal entry shipments valued less than $100 were entirely ex- cluded from the airborne import statistics. Esti- mated data for informal entry shipments valued $250 or less, based on a 10-percent sample of such ship- ments,were included in the column showing value data for "All carriers" in table 2,but were excluded from the other statistics in this table. Since the statistics showing total value of imports by all carriers include sample estimates, they are subject to sampling variability. In general, the higher value figures will have the lower percent sampling errors. Value totals of $500,000 and over will generally have a sampling variability of less than three percent while value totals of under $500,000 will generally have a sampling variability of less than $50,000.
