Import,export procedure

DEFINATION
 An export of a good occurs when there is a change
of ownership from a resident to a non-resident; this

physically crosses the frontier. However, in specific
cases national accounts impute changes of
ownership even though in legal terms no change of
ownership takes place (e.g. cross border financial
leasing, cross border deliveries between affiliates of
the same enterprise, goods crossing the border for
significant processing to order or repair). Also
smuggled goods must be included in the export
measurement.
