New: Taiwan Customs Trade Data – monthly export, import & trade-balance stats at partner x HS-commodity grain

What it does

This actor pulls Taiwan's official customs aggregates - from the Customs Administration, the International Trade Administration (Bureau of Foreign Trade), and the Customs-Port-Trade Single Window - on demand. It emits a clean per-row dataset of exports, imports and trade balance broken out by partner country and HS commodity code, with values in both TWD and USD.

Who it's for

Semiconductor supply-chain analysts, sell-side Taiwan equity desks, EM macro PMs, and trade-flow researchers who treat Taiwan's monthly export print as one of the best reads on the chip cycle outside Korea.

Sample fields / output

• data_type - exports / imports / trade_balance
• period - YYYY-MM reporting month
• partner_country plus English & Traditional-Chinese names (ISO-3166 alpha-2)
• HS commodity code & description
• value in TWD and USD

Example use cases

• Track the semiconductor cycle through HS-85 / 8542 / 8471 export prints month over month.
