Rationale and interpretation |
Данные по статистике внешней и взаимной торговли как в целом, так и по товарам ИКТ составляются путем обработки информации, содержащейся в Декларациях на товары (таможенная статистика) и данных государственных статистических наблюдений и обследований по внешней и взаимной торговле (формы государственной статистические отчетности).

Method of computation |
The indicators are calculated by dividing the cost of importing or exporting goods classified as ICT goods (the amount of imports or exports of commodity items according to the list of compliance with the EAEU HS codes) by the total cost of importing or exporting goods. The result is multiplied by 100 to express it as a percentage.
