Preface

The 2019 International Trade Statistics Yearbook (2019 ITSY) is the sixty-eighth edition of this yearbook. Its objective is to inform about the detailed merchandise and services imports and exports of individual countries (areas) by commodity and service categories and by partner countries (in Volume I), the world trade in individual products i.e. 3-digit SITC groups and 12 main EBOPS categories (in Volume II) up to the year 2019. The two volumes are prepared at different points in time: Volume I - Trade by Country is made electronically available in June-July, and Volume II - Trade by Product, in December, as the preparation of the tables in Volume II requires comprehensive statistics which normally become available later in the year.
