The charts depict the variations in exports being transported through Rotterdam port in Holland to various global regions from the year of 2002 to 2012 and the percentage rates of taxation goods at the destination. Overall, although almost all destinations manifested a downward trend in term of export quantities, total exports rose slightly over the given amount of time.
Regarding the volumes, being the largest landing continent, Europe started with 6900 million which is then dropped to reach 6400 million by 2012 and the amount of exports in the USA decreased moderately from 4200 million to 3900 million over a decade. Likewise, this downward trend took place in China and Latin America by dipping to 2300 million and 1500 million respectively. On the other hand, volumes in Asia Pacific and Australasia rocketed over the period by hitting the apex of 2550 and 2300 million respectively. The other zones plateaued at 350 million.
In term of taxation, it can be seen that tax rose considerably in all the regions that indicated a slide in volumes, rising to 2% in the USA, China and Latin America and improving from 5% to 8% in Europe. In contrast, taxation in Asia Pacific reduced from 5% to 2% over the period and the percentage rates of tax decreased to 1% in Australasia by 2012.
