Trade evidence, with clear limits.

What is TRADE MERIDIAN?

TRADE MERIDIAN is an alpha market intelligence tool for independent sellers. It displays available official country trade observations and their sources so sellers can compare trade context before investigating a market.

The selector catalog is broader than the available data. A selectable country or HS product group does not imply live observations, platform support or permission to sell.

What does the paid alpha report contain?

The Full Market Report is a readable report with print/PDF and a source JSON download of available official observations for the selected route, related trade routes, report query and provenance. The base price is 19 USDT, plus the disclosed fractional purchase attribution amount. Payment uses USDT on TRON (TRC-20).

Packaging reference summaries have individual review status; approved references for the destination may accompany the report. Personal applicability remains unresolved. The alpha report does not provide a personalized compliance checklist, verified fixed costs, a profitability forecast or legal clearance. Current contents and payment details are disclosed on checkout before payment.

Does trade data tell me whether I may sell in a country?

No. An observed trade flow shows recorded trade for a country pair, period and HS category. It does not establish that a particular seller, product or platform meets import, product safety, tax or packaging requirements. Product composition, classification, seller establishment and destination matter. TRADE MERIDIAN currently labels market access and cost coverage as unknown.

Does TRADE MERIDIAN currently verify PPWR or EPR compliance?

No. Public packaging references identify sources and their review status; they do not verify your business’s compliance. Packaging obligations need a separate assessment against current official EU and national sources. Do not treat unknown coverage as permission to sell.

For primary reference material, start with Regulation (EU) 2025/40 on packaging and packaging waste and the European Commission packaging waste overview. These links identify sources to consult; they are not a reviewed applicability assessment for your business.

How can I check an observation?

Use the source link, period, HS code and revision, retrieved timestamp and verification timestamp displayed with an observation. Values refer to HS categories, not exact product market sizes. Growth stays unknown when it has not been established. Country lines are comparison links, not physical shipping paths.

Live UN Comtrade retrieval is implemented. Eurostat and WTO publication remains disabled pending mapping review. Authentication emails and the preview-only market alerts are separate features.
