The intrastat system as of July 1, 2013. is an important indicator of the economic success and development of each country. With the accession of the Republic of Croatia to the European Union borders were abolished, border controls and formalities in the movement of goods between the Republic of Croatia and other EU Member States have been abolished. An Intrastat form is an electronic form in .xml format, which is submitted monthly by the reporting units to the Intrastat system. It is submitted electronically between the 1st and the 15th day of the following of the month for which the Intrastat form is completed. The analysis will show the value of international trade in goods within and outside of the EU. Each country that is member of the EU sets its own national thresholds, which are applied separately to imports and exports within the EU on an annual basis. The application of a simplification threshold is explained to allow traders whose annual trade value is above the inclusion threshold or below the simplification threshold to provide only a limited set of data. An optional variable threshold is used to reduce the burden imposed on statistical information providers. The application of this threshold depends on the rules established by the EU Member State.
