Documentation

Description:
Annual international trade in services data for the UK, with variables including service type, country, and industry. The Inter-Departmental Business Register is used as a sampling frame, with approximately 25,000 - 30,000 businesses sampled annually. Approximately 2,000 businesses are sampled on a quarterly basis, and their responses are aggregated and included in the annual data. Various sampling methods are used to optimise data quality, including a combination of both random and non-random sampling. Imputation is used to account for non-response. Weighting is used to reduce the impact of outliers and to gross responses to account for the total population of UK businesses that are in scope for the survey.
