Last updated: April 2026 dataProducts classified under the 'Not Advanced Technology' grouping fall outside the Census Bureau's ten advanced technology product (ATP) categories and serve as the residual complement to the ATP universe within total US trade statistics. Analysts use this segment to isolate how non-high-tech merchandise — ranging from agricultural commodities to basic manufactures — drives the overall US trade balance independent of technology-intensive sectors. Shifts in this grouping often reflect commodity price cycles, energy trade volumes, and consumer goods flows rather than R&D-driven supply chains.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The Census Bureau defines advanced technology products by their high R&D content and leading-edge technology across ten specific sectors. Any product that does not meet those sector-specific criteria is counted in the 'Not Advanced Technology' residual, regardless of its HTS chapter.
Separating non-ATP trade allows economists to distinguish cyclical, commodity-driven swings in the trade balance from structural trends in technology-intensive exports and imports, providing a cleaner read on US industrial competitiveness.
