e 3 Fo 9de FT 986 FOR RELEASE January 25, 1971 CUSTOMS DISTRICT BY CONTINENT: NOVEMBER 1970 This report presents statistics on U.S. exports and imports by air in U.S. customs district by continent arrangement. Data have been compiled from Shipper's Export Declarations (Commerce Form 7525-V) and import entries during the regular processing of statis- tical data on foreign trade shipments. The customs districts shown in this report are those having combined exports and imports by air valued at $2 million or more during the preceding calendar year. A complete list of customs districts and ports is presented in Schedule D, Code Classification of United States Customs Districts and Ports, January 1, 1970 edition, as amended. 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 throughU.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 September 1970, sampling procedures have been reinstituted for estimating data on shipments valued $251-$499 to countries other than Canada. (Data for such shipments were fully compiled during January-August 1970, but sampling procedures were in effect for these shipments during October-December 1969 and for ship- ments valued $100-$499 prior to October 1969.) There- fore, effective September 1970, the statistics on exports of domestic and foreign merchandise to countries other than Canada reflect fully compiled data for shipments valued $500 and over combined with estimated data for shipments valued $251-$499, based on a 50-percent probability sample of such shipments. For exports to Canada there has been no change in compiling proce- dures and the statistics continue to reflectfully compiled data for shipments valued $2,000 and over combined with estimated data for shipments valued $251-$1,999, based on a 10-percent probability 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 in- dividual customs districts. Since the export figures shown include estimates based on a sample of low-valued shipments, they are subject to some degree of sampling variability. The following is a rough guide to the general level of sampling variability of value totals, on a 2 chances out of 3 basis. Usually, the higher value figures will have the lower percent sampling errors. For sale by the Bureau of the Census, Washington, D.C. 20233. Price 10 per copy.

The statistics include government a well as nongovernment shipments of merchandise by air from foreign countries to the United Btat-s. However, American goods returned by the U.S. Armed Forces for their own use are excluded. L'.S. trade with Puerto Rico and with U.S. possessions and trade between '.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 UnitedStates in transit from one foreign country to another, when documented as sch through L.S. Customs, is not re- ported as imports and is excluded from the data shown in this report. iForeign merchandise that has entered the United States as an import and is subsequently re- exported is not treated as n-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. rhe statistics shown for individual customs districts represent fully compil-d data for shipments valued $251 and over. Data for shipments valued under $251, re- ported on formal and informal entries normall 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 pierce 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. t. , Table 1.
