Help Center - TradeInt | How can I access trade data for countries such as China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, or other nations that do not disclose their customs data?

Certain countries prioritize the confidentiality of trade-related information and, consequently, implement stringent regulations to safeguard the data of companies and individuals involved in trade activities. In such cases, where customs trade data is not publicly disclosed, TradeInt offers a solution known as Mirror Data. This approach involves leveraging customs data provided by a country engaged in a trade transaction to infer the trade activity of another country that does not disclose its customs data. For instance, if Country A trades with Country B and Country B discloses its customs data, the import data recorded by Country B can be utilized as a mirror of the export data from Country A. It's important to note that this method is contingent upon the availability of customs data from at least one of the involved countries, as it serves as a proxy for the undisclosed country's trade activity. However, if both countries involved in the trade transaction do not disclose their customs data, the mirror data method cannot be applied.
