                            U.S. IMPORT AND EXPORT PRICE INDEXES - JANUARY 2025

Prices for U.S. imports increased 0.3 percent in January, after advancing 0.2 percent in December, the U.S. 
Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Higher fuel and nonfuel prices in January contributed to the 
overall increase in import prices. U.S. export prices rose 1.3 percent in January following a 0.5-percent 
advance the previous month.


Imports 

The price index for U.S. imports advanced 0.3 percent in January, the largest 1-month rise since the index 
increased 0.9 percent in April 2024. Prices for U.S. imports advanced 1.9 percent from January 2024 to 
January 2025. (See table 1.)

Fuel Imports: Import fuel prices rose 3.2 percent in January, after increasing 1.7 percent in December. The 
January advance was the largest monthly rise since April 2024. Higher prices for petroleum and natural gas 
contributed to the overall increase in import fuel prices in January. Prices for import fuel rose 2.4 percent for 
the year ended in January. Petroleum import prices advanced 2.9 percent in January, the largest 1-month rise 
since April 2024. Prices for import petroleum increased 2.3 percent over the past year, the largest 12-month 
advance since the year ended July 2024. The price index for import natural gas rose 13.4 percent in January 
following a 173.1-percent increase over the final quarter of 2024. Natural gas prices advanced 12.9 percent 
from January 2024 to January 2025, the first over-the-year increase since the index rose 80.5 percent for the 
year ended January 2023. 

All Imports Excluding Fuel: Prices for nonfuel imports ticked up 0.1 percent for the third consecutive 
month in January. Nonfuel import prices have not declined on a monthly basis since a 0.2-percent drop in 
May 2024. Higher prices for nonfuel industrial supplies and materials; capital goods; and foods, feeds, and 
beverages in January more than offset lower prices for automotive vehicles and consumer goods. The price 
index for nonfuel imports advanced 1.8 percent for the year ended in January.           

Foods, Feeds, and Beverages: Foods, feeds, and beverages prices increased 0.2 percent in January, after 
advancing 3.0 percent the previous month. Higher prices in January for fish and shellfish, fruit, food oils, 
and bakery and confectionery products more than offset lower vegetable prices.   

Nonfuel Industrial Supplies and Materials: The price index for nonfuel industrial supplies and materials 
rose 0.6 percent in January following a 0.2-percent decrease in December. The January increase in nonfuel 
industrial supplies and materials prices was driven by a 17.0-percent advance in other agricultural products 
prices.  

Finished Goods: Prices for the major finished goods import categories were mixed in January. Capital 
goods prices ticked up 0.1 percent, after declining 0.2 percent in each of the 2 previous months. Higher 
prices for civilian aircraft, engines, and parts drove the advance. In contrast, automotive vehicles prices fell 
0.4 percent in January, the largest monthly decline since January 2017. Lower passenger cars prices led the 
January decrease. The price index for import consumer goods fell 0.2 percent in January, the largest 1-
month drop since June 2024. Lower prices for medicinal, dental, and pharmaceutical preparatory materials 
drove the decline in consumer goods prices.

Exports 

Prices for U.S. exports rose 1.3 percent in January, the largest monthly increase since the index advanced

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
                  Upcoming Change to Data Source for Import and Export Price Indexes

With the release of the February 2025 U.S. Import and Export Price Indexes news release on March 18, 
2025, BLS import and export price indexes will greatly expand the use of data from a non-survey source. 
Administrative trade records from the U.S. Census Bureau will be used in place of survey data for certain 
goods categories. This transition to an alternative data source will not create a break in series with currently 
published price indexes. Hundreds more detailed import and export price indexes will begin publication, 
starting with a base period of January 2025 = 100. More information is available at 
www.bls.gov/mxp/notices/2024/change-data-source-import-export-price-indexes.htm.

                                                TECHNICAL NOTE                                                

Import and Export Goods and Services Price Indexes - All indexes use a modified Laspeyres 
formula and are not seasonally adjusted. Price indexes are reweighted annually, with a 2-year lag in the 
weights. Published series use a base year of 2000=100 where possible. More detailed index series and 
additional information may be obtained at www.bls.gov/mxp or by calling (202) 691-7101.

Merchandise Goods Classification Systems - The merchandise price indexes are published using three 
classification systems. Items are classified by end use according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis 
Classification System, by industry according to the North American Industry Classification System 
(NAICS), and by product category according to the Harmonized System (HS). While classification by 
end use and product category are self-explanatory, some notes are in order for classifying items by 
industry. In the NAICS imports and exports tables, items are classified by output industry, not input 
industry. As an example, NAICS import index 326 (plastics and rubber products manufacturing) 
includes outputs such as manufactured plastic rather than inputs such as petroleum. The NAICS 
classification structure also matches the classification system used by the Producer Price Index (PPI) to 
produce the NAICS primary products indexes.

Import Price Goods Indexes - Items are classified by the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United 
States Annotated (TSUSA). Import prices are based on U.S. dollar prices paid by the U.S. importer. The 
prices are generally either "free on board" (f.o.b.) foreign port or "cost, insurance, and freight" (c.i.f.) 
U.S. port transaction prices, depending on the practices of the individual industry. The index for crude 
petroleum is calculated from data collected by the U.S. Department of Energy.  

Export Price Goods Indexes - Items are classified by the Harmonized Schedule B classification system 
of the U.S. Bureau of the Census. The prices used are generally either "free alongside ship" (f.a.s.) 
factory or "free on board" (f.o.b.) transaction prices, depending on the practices of the individual 
industry. Prices used in the grain index, excluding rice, are obtained from the U.S. Department of 
Agriculture.

Services Price Indexes - Indexes for import and export air passenger fares calculate changes in the 
average revenue received per passenger by foreign carriers from U.S. residents and by U.S. carriers from 
foreign residents, respectively. Data are obtained from an airline consulting service and report on tickets 
sold by travel agencies, travel websites, and directly by the airlines. Taxes and fees are included in both 
the import and export air passenger fares indexes. Import air passenger fares data have used the airline 
consulting service source since September 2008. Before April 2018, the export air passenger fares data 
were collected directly by BLS from U.S. airlines. The air freight indexes are calculated from data 
collected directly from airlines. These data exclude mail and passenger baggage. The scope of the 
service being priced is the movement of freight from airport to airport only, and does not include any 
ground transportation or port service. The air freight indexes are presented using two definitions: 
balance of payments (which represents transactions between U.S. and foreign residents) and 
international (which represents transactions inbound to and outbound from the United States.) Fact 
sheets specifying detailed information for each services industry are available at www.bls.gov/mxp 
under "MXP Publications."

Import Price Indexes by Locality of Origin - Prices used in these indexes are a subset of the data 
collected for the import price indexes. The indexes are specific to a country, region, or grouping and, 
beginning with January 2002, are based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) 
covering goods-producing industries. Nonmanufactured goods are defined as NAICS 11 and 21, and 
manufactured goods are defined as NAICS 31-33. 

Export Price Indexes by Locality of Destination - Prices used in these indexes are a subset of the data 
collected for the export price indexes. The indexes are specific to a country, region, or grouping and are 
based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) covering goods-producing 
industries. Nonmanufactured goods are defined as NAICS 11 and 21, and manufactured goods are 
defined as NAICS 31-33. 

Terms of Trade Indexes - Terms of trade indexes measure the relative price of exports in terms of 
import prices for a specific country, region, or grouping. The indexes are calculated as one country, 
region, or grouping's all-export goods price index divided by the corresponding all-import goods price 
index on a scale of 100. 
   
Relative Importance - A relative importance is a specific index's price-updated value share (expressed 
as a percentage) of overall imports or exports at a specific point in time. Relative importance values are 
affected by the trade weights at the point indexes are reweighted and index changes relative to other 
indexes since the reweight point. If an index is rising in value relative to other indexes over time, the 
relative importance will increase as well. 
 
Revision Policy - To reflect the availability of late reports and corrections by respondents, monthly data 
may be revised in each of the 3 months after original publication. After 3 months, no further data 
revisions take place. For example, data first published in the January release will be subject to revision 
in the releases for February, March, and April.

Rounding Policy - Index values are rounded to the tenth decimal place after being calculated. All 
percent changes are then derived from the rounded index values and subsequently rounded to the tenth 
decimal place.

Uses of the Data - The primary use of the indexes is to deflate trade statistics, notably the foreign trade 
sector of the National Income and Product Accounts (NIPA) constructed by the Department of 
Commerce. Other published indexes are useful for general market analysis. For trade in international 
services, balance of payments indexes are used for deflating NIPA, while international indexes are more 
appropriate for market analysis. 

Additional Information - More detailed data are available on the Import/Export Price Indexes home 
page at www.bls.gov/mxp. For import and export price indexes data requests, send an email to 
mxpinfo@bls.gov.
