The United Nations Statistical Commission, at its thirty-ninth session held in New York from 26 to 29 February 2008, adopted the International Recommendations for Distributive Trade Statistics 2008 (IRDTS 2008) as the new international standard in this area of statistics.

In order to promote and assist countries in the implementation of IRTDS 2008, the United Nations Statistics Division (UNSD) is arranging a number of technical assistance activities for developing countries.
