respectively.
The increase in the exports of Crude Oil was due to an increase in the trade volume of Crude Oil from
127.90 kbbl per day (May 2016) to 131.10 kbbl per day (May 2017) and the exports price of Crude Oil
increased from USD47.63/bbl (May 2016) to USD51.95/bbl (May 2017).
Meanwhile, the increase in the exports of LNG was due to an increase in the trade volume of LNG from

LNG increased from USD6.36/MMBtu (May 2016) to USD8.44/MMBtu (May 2017).

TECHNICAL NOTES
1. Introduction
The International Merchandise Trade statistics (IMTS) are compiled on a monthly basis based on the
import and export data submitted by the Royal Customs and Excise Department, Ministry of Finance
through customs declarations and from the Energy Department, Prime Minister’s Office. The general
system of recording IMTS adopted by Brunei Darussalam covers imports, domestic exports and re-
exports that have been cleared through customs.
2. Coverage of Merchandise
All goods imported into or exported from Brunei Darussalam are included in the IMTS. The following classes of goods are excluded:
currency notes and coins in circulation;
personal and household effects which do not incur any Brunei Darussalam customs duty and which are taken by passengers for their own use;
stores and fuel supplied to Brunei ships and aircraft;
articles on loan or rent for example, equipment for oil surveys and experimental drilling, etc.;
goods in transit;
fish and other marine products landed from Brunei Darussalam fishing vessels direct from fishing grounds;
goods imported and exported by or on behalf of diplomatic services; and
goods imported by the armed forces.
3. Time of Recording
Brunei Darussalam uses the ‘release date’ as its time of recording, which provides the time/date that
stipulated in source documents when goods enter or leave the economic territory.
4. Valuation
Imports are valued at CIF, that is, the value of goods at the frontier of the exporting country plus the cost of insurance and freight and any other charges when sold for export to Brunei Darussalam. Custom duties are not included in the value of imports. Exports are valued at FOB, that is, the value of goods to be purchased abroad up to the point where the goods are deposited on board the outgoing vessel, aircraft and/or vehicle. Goods on consignment are valued at the current import price for imports and the current export price for exports.
Goods are recorded at their market value. Values are reported in millions of Brunei dollars. Data
reported in foreign currencies are converted into local currency at prevailing market exchange rate on
the date of permit clearance.
IMTS May 2017

5. Commodity Classification
Commodity items reported are classified in accordance with the Brunei Darussalam Trade Classification and Customs Duties 2017. This classification incorporates the ASEAN Harmonized Tariff Nomenclature (AHTN), which is based on the 6-digits Harmonised Commodity Description and Coding System Nomenclature (H.S) developed by the World Customs Organisation (WCO).
For International comparability in this report import and export are classified according to the United Nations Standard Trade Classification, Revision 4 (SITC Rev. 4) for the purpose of international comparability of statistics on external trade.
The imports data can also categorized according to their end-use categories, namely Capital,
Intermediate or Consumption based on Brunei Darussalam’s Broad Economic Categories (BDBEC), which
is adapted from United Nation, the Fifth revision of Broad Economic Categories.
The BDBEC is classified in accordance to Broad Economic Category introduced by the United Nations
and as a means for converting data compiled in terms of SITC into end-use categories.
The BDBEC provides categories which can be aligned into 3 large classes of goods in the System of
National Accounts (SNA):
Capital Goods are used as means of producing other goods or services.
Intermediate Goods are semi-processed, semi-manufactured and industrial-supplies; and
transformed or used up in the production of goods and services.
Consumption Goods are final product mainly used by households for final consumption.
