Sources for trade statistics by partner and product
- Trade agreements and market access
- Agreements and preferences in force
- not audited
The Advance Guatemala file already covers `exports_goods_usd`, `imports_goods_usd`, `trade_balance_goods_usd`, `trade_balance_services_usd` and the bilateral pairs `trade_exports_*` / `trade_imports_*` for 24 partners plus the world (`w00`). Series are missing for Taiwan, Israel, the United Kingdom, Peru and the Dominican Republic — all partners with an FTA in force — and are proposed with Banguat / UN Comtrade as the source. For product-level detail, the Bank of Guatemala (Banguat) publishes trade by product (MINECO's profiles cite it as their source) and SIECA publishes intra-regional trade; the exact Banguat endpoint by SAC chapter has yet to be identified. Also proposed are `tariff_mfn_simple_avg` and `tariff_mfn_weighted_avg` (WTO, annual), `eu_quota_sugar_utilization_pct` (MINECO, annual), `intra_ca_exports_usd` (SIECA, monthly), `exports_apparel_usd` (Banguat, monthly), and two derived indicators: `trade_openness_pct` and `fta_coverage_exports_pct`.
The research is written in English; quoted figures, source names and the titles of legal instruments stay in the language their source published them in.

This layer is research: read from public sources by the archive's own team, every claim cited with the date it was consulted, and audited where it is marked so. It has not entered the verified store — no figure here was fetched back from its source or stamped with a retrieval time — so it wears no red provenance numeral and never mixes with the verified figures.
