The volume statistics of entrepot trade are rather complex. It can be counted either by trade volume or by the number of transactions. From a global perspective, since it involves numerous countries and regions, it is difficult to obtain accurate data in real time. However, the general trend can be understood from the trade reports issued by relevant institutions such as the World Trade Organization. In China, the customs will collect relevant data on entrepot trade.
Generally speaking, counting by trade volume can intuitively reflect the economic scale of entrepot trade. For example, although the proportion of China's entrepot trade volume in the overall trade volume in recent years is not particularly high, its absolute value has also reached a certain scale. Counting by the number of transactions can reflect the activity level of entrepot trade. Understanding these data is of great help for analyzing market trends. It can tell which products and regions have frequent entrepot trade, thus helping enterprises to layout the market and formulate strategies.
However, it should be noted that statistical data may vary due to factors such as statistical caliber and time.
