The June 2023 data on foreign trade have been updated on the online database www.coeweb.istat.it. They incorporate an unplanned revision of import flows due to delays in acquiring input data. March 2023 data have also been revised for the same reason. Information on the revision will be available in the next press release “Foreign trade and import prices, 07-2023”, to be issued on September 15, 2023.
