Trade enquiry system: global trade data for steel and other base metals
ISSB provides monthly, quarterly or annual cumulative reports detailing import and export trade data. The extensive online database offers accurate and up to date statistical information at 6-, 8- and 10-digit tariff code level, 78 for which we have data back to the 1980s.
As far as products are concerned, traditionally we have been able to offer trade in steel for chapters 72 and selected product in chapter 73. We are now able to offer a full range of chapter product; chapter 26 (all ores), chapter 27 (mineral fuels & oils), chapter 28 (inorganic chemicals), chapter 74 (copper articles), chapter 75 (nickel articles), chapter 76 (aluminium articles), chapter 78 (lead articles), chapter 79 (zinc articles), chapter 80 (tin articles), chapter 81 (other base metals), chapter 83 (miscellaneous articles of base metals) and chapter 86 (railway/ tramway locomotives).
With an annual subscription to our trade enquiry system, you get complete access to an extensive online database of trade data for raw materials, ores, steel and other base metals, plus more items, with historical data back to 2019. As soon as a country is updated, our online database will send you an email notification and you can access the data straightaway at your own convenience.
Here, we have demonstrated some examples of how the Trade Enquiry System works, and how you can book a tutorial with us.

ISSB Trade Enquiry System: what does the data look like?
This video gives an example of how the data provided by the Trade Enquiry System could be used
See how you can select trade flow data, from imports and exports, and explore by individual countries, regions, or worldwide datasets
The data selection can be customised by market countries, viewing each country separately or by region, or include ports.
The metals trade report can then be further personalised with product level selection at a 6-digit level, or even further for advanced users. Following this, you can identify market trends by splitting the results by year, quarter or month depending on which international trade flows you need to analyse, and by tonnes and value.
