Methodological note

The indicator is defined as the value (at current prices) of EU imports from developing countries. In this context, developing countries are defined as the countries on the OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC) list of official development assistance beneficiaries. The indicator is presented broken down by income groups of partner countries, as distinguished by the DAC list. Please note that these groups are not static over time, as countries can change groups.
