No. These data are administrative, regulatory data required by the U.S. government as part of the import/export procedures established by CBP and the U.S. Census Bureau. Therefore they represent an entire “census” of U.S. trade. They are not survey data. Instead they are a special subset of official U.S. international trade statistics.
