(Restricted) Commodity Flow Survey (CFS) - Title 13 Version

Résumé 0

The Commodity Flows Survey (CFS) captures sample data on shipments originating from selected types of business establishments located in the 50 states and the District of Columbia. The dataset includes origin establishment information, domestic destination or port of exit, commodity, value, weight, mode(s) of transportation, the date on which the shipment was made, and an indication of whether the shipment was an export, hazardous material, or temperature controlled. For shipments that include more than one commodity, respondents are instructed to report the commodity that makes up the greatest percentage of the shipment's weight. For exports, the respondent is asked to provide the mode of export and the foreign destination city and country. For hazardous materials shipments, the corresponding UN/NA code is collected. These versions of CFS data have been altered to remove Title 26 data. These alterations impact roughly 5% of the shipment-level data and 10 percent of the establishment-level information. No IRS approval is required to access this data.
