From a broad perspective, Hong Kong's re - export trade can be counted as an export. In Hong Kong, when goods are transshipped from Hong Kong to other regions, for Hong Kong, this process involves the export of goods, which conforms to some characteristics of exports. From a trade - statistical perspective, the Hong Kong statistical department will include the export of such transshipped goods in the relevant export data. However, it is different from general export trade. In general export trade, goods are mostly directly shipped from the country of origin to the destination country, and the production and processing are mostly completed in the country of origin. In Hong Kong's re - export trade, the goods only stay briefly in Hong Kong for transshipment and no in - depth processing is carried out to change the basic state of the goods. For example, toys produced on the Chinese mainland are transshipped to the United States via Hong Kong. For Hong Kong, this is considered a re - export "export", but it is different from the concept of exporting toys produced locally in Hong Kong.
In short, Hong Kong's re - export trade has the attributes of an export in Hong Kong's trade statistics and operation, but attention should be paid to distinguishing it from traditional export trade.
