Goods Export statistics published by the CSO are compiled from a survey of exporting businesses carried out by the VIMA (VIES, Intrastat, Mutual Assistance) division of the Revenue Commissioners. The traders report in this survey the country of destination of the goods they export. Any country or countries through which the goods might pass en route to their final destination are not reported.
If goods are exported to Great Britain, and are subsequently exported again by a British trader to a third country, the CSO data will show these goods as having been exported to Great Britain.
Data on mode of transport is not available.

The Irish Maritime Development Office (IMDO), in conjunction with the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport, has undertaken a study into the use of the UK landbridge by Irish importers and exporters. The purpose of this research is to establish the volume of traffic using the UK landbridge at present, the potential consequences that Brexit will have on landbridge usage and the various alternative options that may be viable. The Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport advise that this Study is expected to be finalised and published shortly.
