In our April to June 2025 release, our methodology improvements to recording trade in precious metals were not fully implemented for trade with a small number of countries. This was because of a processing error. The error affects the current account within the balance of payments. Estimates of total gross domestic product (GDP) are not affected. We will update our estimates at the earliest opportunity. More information, including indicative impacts, is available in Section 8: Data sources and quality of our Balance of payments, UK: April to June 2025 bulletin.
Because of processing issues, Table C: Transactions with the European Union and with non-EU countries, do not include estimates for Quarter 1 (Jan to Mar) 2024 onwards. We will update the dataset as soon as possible. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
