                        Changes to source data for import natural gas prices

Effective with this release, directly collected data for import natural gas prices is replaced with non-survey
sources for price index calculation. This transition to an alternative data source did not create a break in
series with previously published price indexes. For additional information see
www.bls.gov/mxp/publications/additional-publications/natural-gas-facts.htm.

December 2024. (See All commodities in table 1.)

Fuel Imports: Import prices for fuels and lubricants increased 2.9 percent in March, following an advance 
of 2.4 percent in February. The March increase was the largest monthly advance since the index rose 3.0 
percent in January 2025. Higher prices for petroleum more than offset lower prices for natural gas. In 
March, prices for import petroleum and petroleum products advanced 9.4 percent. Natural gas import prices

advanced 2.8 percent on a 12-month basis. The March increase was the largest over-the-year advance since 
the index rose 2.9 percent in October 2022. Higher prices for nonfuel industrial supplies and materials, 
capital goods, and consumer goods excluding automotives more than offset lower prices for foods, feeds, 
and beverages as well as for automotive vehicles, parts and engines from March 2025 to March 2026.

Foods, Feeds, and Beverages: Import foods, feeds, and beverages prices advanced 0.5 percent in March, 
following increases of 0.3 percent in February and 0.4 percent in January. Higher prices for vegetables; 
fruit; fish and shellfish; as well as for cane and beet sugar contributed to the increase in March.

Nonfuel Industrial Supplies and Materials: Import prices for nonfuel industrial supplies and materials 
increased 1.6 percent in March, after a 2.2-percent advance in February. Higher prices for finished metals 
shapes and advanced manufacturing and for major nonferrous metals-crude drove the advance.

Finished Goods: Prices for the major finished goods import categories were mostly up in March. Import 
capital goods prices increased 0.5 percent in March. Higher import prices for computers, peripherals and 
semiconductors; civilian aircraft, engines, and parts; and industrial and service machinery contributed to the 
advance. The price index for import consumer goods excluding automotives rose 0.4 percent in March. 
Higher prices for medicinal, dental and pharmaceutical preparatory materials drove the overall increase in

					     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. 

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. 

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. 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.) 

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.
