Export of italian regions - Updating fourth quarter 2023 data

Due to the innovations in the customs transmission procedures of extra-UE export data by economic operators, fourth quarter 2023 data recorded some specific issues of correct allocation of exports by province of origin. The adoption of appropriate estimation methods has improved the quality of territorial data with a limited impact on the data already published in the Press Release of 12 March (cf. Methodological Note p. 6). The updated data are available on Coeweb. Below is the updated version of the March 2024 Press Release to support data analysis.
