Written question asked by Lord Hylton (Crossbench), in the House of Lords. It was answered by Baroness Wilcox (Conservative) on Thursday, 16 December 2010.


Kosovo

Question
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what was the value of exports to, and imports from, Kosovo in the most recent year for which figures are available; and by what percentage the total trade has increased since 2004.
Answer

HM Revenue and Customs' overseas trade statistics (OTS) recorded UK exports of goods worth £4,568,000 to Kosovo and UK imports of goods from Kosovo worth £165,000 in 2009. The OTS started treating Kosovo separately in July 2005. In 2006 the OTS data showed £1,743,000 of UK exports of goods to Kosovo and £36,000 of imports; the 2009 data therefore represent increases of 162 per cent and 352 per cent respectively since 2006.
