1. International trade can be divided into 1 according to the moving direction of goods. Import trade: introducing goods or services from other countries into the domestic market for sale. 2. Export trade: exporting domestic goods or services to other countries' markets for sale. 3. entrepot trade: the goods of country A are transported to the market of country B through the territory of country C, which is entrepot trade to country C. At present, WTO members do not engage in transit trade because transit trade hinders international trade. Import trade and export trade are both export trade for both sides of each transaction and import trade for the buyer. In addition, when goods imported into the country are re-exported, they become re-exported; Goods exported abroad are called re-import when they are imported into China. Second, international trade can be divided into 1 by commodity form. Visible trade: the import and export of tangible goods. Such as machines, equipment, furniture, etc. They are all goods in physical form, and the import and export of these goods is called visible trade. 2. Invisible trade: the import and export of technologies and services without physical form. Transfer of patent use rights, transnational services provided by tourism, financial and insurance enterprises, etc. They are all goods without physical form, and their import and export are called invisible trade. 3. According to the relationship between producer and consumer in trade, international trade can be divided into 1. Direct trade refers to the behavior of commodity producing countries and commodity consuming countries buying and selling commodities without going through a third country. The exporting country of trade is called direct export, and the importing country is called direct import. Indirect trade and entrepot trade: refers to the behavior of commodity producers and consumers buying and selling commodities through a third country. In indirect trade, producers are called indirect exporters, consumers are called indirect importers, and third countries are entrepot countries, and third countries are engaged in entrepot trade. According to the content of trade, it is divided into service trade, processing trade, commodity trade and general trade. According to the number of trade participants, it is divided into bilateral trade and multilateral trade 1. Bilateral trade refers to the trade between two countries on the basis of bilateral settlement through agreement. In this kind of trade, both sides pay for the import of the other side with the export of one side, which is mostly implemented in foreign exchange control countries. In addition, bilateral trade also refers to the trade between the two countries. 2. Multilateral trade, also called multi-angle trade, refers to the trade in which three or more countries buy and sell each other on the basis of multilateral settlement through agreement. Obviously, under the trend of economic globalization, multilateral trade is more common.
Legal objectivity:
Standard international trade classification (SITC). Standard international trade classification is a standard classification method for statistics and comparison of international trade goods. Standard international trade classification standard international trade classification can be traced back to the first half of the 20th century. The League of Nations was founded in 1920, and began to draw up a statistical catalogue of international trade terms and commodities. In 1930s, it published the draft of Tariff Terminology, and based on this draft, it was revised into the Compendium of International Trade Statistics for all member countries to use. After World War II, 5 1 country * * * co-founded the United Nations. In order to make statistics and analysis of world trade, the United Nations Statistical Commission further revised the compendium of the above catalogue and completed the standard international trade classification in 1950. The standard * * * is divided into 10, 50, 150, and 570. As the same basis for international institutions to make trade statistics reports and systematically analyze world trade. This standard was recommended by the United Nations Economic and Social Council on 195 1 to all member states. Since the promulgation and implementation of 195 1, the Standard International Trade Classification has undergone several revisions. Except for the category framework, other categories have changed accordingly with the increase of hierarchy. SITC adopts economic classification standard, that is, raw materials, semi-finished products and finished products are classified to reflect the industrial sector source and processing degree of commodities. The standard catalogue is represented by five digits, with 1 digit representing categories, the first two digits representing chapters, the first three digits representing groups and the first four digits representing groups. At present, the United Nations has published SITC (Rev.4). However, SITC is rarely used in China.
