Definition, coverage & attribution

Goods trade balance of France including its overseas departments with the whole world, imports valued CIF and exports FOB, excluding military equipment, raw collection data (not seasonally adjusted), EUR million, as the customs service (DGDDI) publishes it and INSEE republishes it in its BDM. The customs headline balance is FOB/FOB and seasonally adjusted, a different measure. Release times and vintages are unknown; recent months are revised in each release.
