No rate: fewer than 5 alerts in 2025, or less than €50M of EU imports, or no clean customs-code match for this category.
Rates divide EU Safety Gate alerts by the value of extra-EU imports in the same customs codes (UN Comtrade, EU-27, converted from US dollars at the ECB annual average rate). They measure how often regulators flag products from this origin against the trade in them, not the share of products that are unsafe.
