| Note 1: The Hong Kong government typically distinguishes between domestic exports and (total) exports. Domestic exports differ from (total) exports insofar as domestic exports are produced at home and do not include goods imported for the purpose of re-export. Re-exports are goods that are imported and then re-exported with no value added to the goods traded. |
