c 3/ /6'1 Foreign Trade FT 986 FOR RELEASE October 7, 1970 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE/Bureau of the Census CUSTOMS DISTRICT BY CONTINENT: AUGUST 1970 This report presents statistic W S. - imports by air in U.S. custo -ict by co ' arrangement, Data have bee led from Shippe Export Declarations (Comm /Form 7525-V) an import entries during the re processing of statis. tical data on foreign trade eS The s districts shown in this report re ose having combine exports and imports by air va $2 million or mor during the preceding calendar ear A complete lis f customs districts and ports is in Sched i Code Classification of United Sta , and Ports, January 1, 1967 edition, a Exports These statistics represent exports of domestic and foreign merchandise combined and include government and 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, shipments for economic assistance under the Foreign Assistance Act, and shipments of agricultural com- modities 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 that has entered the United States as an import and is subsequently reexported is not treated as in-transit merchandise, and is included in this report.) The figures in this report exclude ex- ports of household and personal effects, shipments by mail and parcel post, and shipments of airplanes under their own power. For security reasons, certain commodities are desig- nated as Special Category commodities, for which security regulations place restrictions upon the export information that may be released. The data shown in this report for individual customs districts and conti- nents exclude exports of Special Category commodities, but overall shipping weight and value totals for Special Category commodities are shown. A list of Special Category commodities, which appears in the January 1970 issue of Report FT 410, may be obtained from the Bureau of the Census. Effective with the statistics for January 1970, the export statistics reflect fully compiled data for shipments individually valued $251 and over to countries other than Canada. For Canada, data are fully compiled for ship- ments individually valued at $2,000 and over while data for shipments valued $251-$1,999 are estimated from a 10-percent sample of such shipments. Shipping weight and value data are also estimated for shipments valued under $251. These estimates are not included in the data shown for individual customs districts. Since the export figures shown for North America in- clude estimates based on a sample of low-valued ship- ments, they are subject to some degree of sampling variability. The following is a rough guide to the general level of samplingvariability (on a 2 chancesout of 3 basis) of value totals. Usually, the higher value figures will have the lower percent sampling errors.

Airborne I ~ (IM 4_ lzv rhe sampling variability of shipping weight figures. in percentage terms, can be approximated by the percent sampling variability of value. Irports 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. possessions 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 foreign country to another, when documented as such through U.S. Customs, is not re- ported as imports and is excluded from the data shown in this report. (Foreign merchandise that has entered the United States as an import and is subsequently re- exported is not treated as in-transit merchandise and is included 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. The statistics shown for individual customs districts represent fully compiled data for shipments valued $251 and over. Data for shipments valued under $251, re- ported on formal and informal entries (informal entries generally contain items valued under $251 ), are estimated from a 5-percent sample. Separate shipping weight and value estimates for shipments valued under $251 are shown. The shipping weight data are estimated from the values on the basis of constants that have been derived from an observation of the value-weight relationships in past periods. 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 3 percent; value totals of under $500,000 will generally have a sampling variability of less than $50,000.
