Methodological changes

In connection with the publishing of April 2015 some methodological changes have been introduced. The time series have been calculated back to 2000 in order to decrease possible level shifts and breaks in the time series, which have resulted in revisions in some historical series.

In connection with the publication of reference month January 2021, methodological changes relating to the calculation of production in 07 (metal ore mines) and 30 (industry for other transport equipment) have been implemented. As a result, statistics for these activities and linked aggregates have been revised from January 2015 and onwards.

In connection with the publication of reference month November 2021, methodological changes relating to the calculation of production in NACE 10-12 (food products, beverage and tobacco industry) NACE 19 (petroleum industry) and NACE 17.11 (pulp industry) have been implemented. As a result, statistics for these activities and linked aggregates have been revised from September 2014 and onwards.

2024-11-08: When publishing the reference month September 2024, changes are implemented that aim to increase the quality of the statistics. The changes involve revisions, in most cases small, from April 2018 to August 2024 and affect the content of tables in the Statistical Database.

2025-06-10: In connection with the publication of reference month April 2025, a methodological change will be introduced regarding the handling of VAT data when used as a source of turnover. The change will entail revisions from April 2019 onwards, in most cases very small and not sufficient to affect published statistical values.
Revisions

2024-03-08: In connection with the publication of reference month Januari 2024, the statistics for mines and quarries (NACE B) and manufacturing industry (NACE C) were revised from reference month April 2023 to December 2023. The largest impact of the revision in periods outside the regular revision policy is found in industry for other non-metallic mineral products (NACE 23) and in industry for motor vehicles, trailers and semi-trailers (NACE 29), as well as all aggregates where these are included.

2023-12-08: In connection with the publication of the reference month October 2023, the statistics for the Industry for Electrical Equipment (NACE 27) have been revised from May 2023 to July 2023. The revisions also include all aggregates where the above industry is included. This is due to new information received by Statistics Sweden. 2023-06-09: As of reference year 2023, there have been changes to the statistical unit kind-of-activity unit. In addition, from April 2023, calculated turnover data from declared VAT data to the Swedish Tax Agency is used on a monthly basis for small and medium-sized enterprises in industries (SNI 07–33). The changes are introduced with the ambition to increase the quality and streamline the production of the functional statistics that describe individual activities in the economy, for example the production of industries. Results reflecting the changes have been calculated back to the reference month April 2022. In the Statistics Database, values for the periods April 2022 to March 2023 have been revised. 2024-03-08: When the reference month January 2024 is published, the base year is changed to 2021. This means that the average of the monthly indices in 2021 is 100 (index 2021=100). 2024-10-10: In connection with the publication of reference month August 2024, statistics for industry for motor vehicles, trailers and semi-trailers (SNI 29) were revised for reference month January to July 2024. The revisions are due to new information reaching SCB. In connection with this, minor revisions of the statistics from the same period were also carried out for other industries (SNI 07-33). The revisions also apply to all aggregates that include these activities. 2025-02-10: In connection with the publication of the reference month December 2024, the statistics have been corrected for the periods April 2024 to November 2024. This after an error was discovered in the calculation of final statistics for the second and third quarter of 2024 (final statistics for a given month are published one to three months after the first publication for the month depending on the placement within the quarter). The error stems from the model calculation of the turnover of so-called annual filers, i.e. companies that, due to their turnover size, only need to declare VAT annually. The correction affects all industries. 2025-04-10: In connection with the publication of the reference month February 2025, the statistics for industry for chemical, chemical products and pharmaceutical products (NACE 20-21) and industry for motor vehicles, trailers and semi-trailers (NACE 29), as well as all aggregates where these industries are included, will be revised back to January 2023. This is because new data has been received by Statistics Sweden. 2025-05-09: In connection with the publication of the reference month March 2025, the statistics have been corrected for the industry of chemical, chemical products and pharmaceutical products (NACE 20-21), as well as all aggregates where these sectors are included. The correction concerns the reference month of September 2024.
