According to statistics from the Statistics Office, Estonia's export of goods in 2025 saw a 7% increase compared to 2024, achieving a total value exceeding €18.6 billion. In parallel, imports also rose, increasing by 8% and totaling over €22.4 billion. This growth in trade highlights the dynamic nature of Estonia's economy, though it also resulted in a trade deficit of €3.8 billion, which represents an increase of €443 million from 2024.

In December 2025 alone, exports surged 16% when compared to December 2024, while imports experienced a more modest growth of 4%. This surge suggests a potential increase in consumer demand and business activity within Estonia, further indicating economic resilience despite ongoing challenges in international markets. The substantial growth figures for both imports and exports may reflect changes in trading partners, commodity prices, and local economic conditions.

The report underscores the importance of continued monitoring of trade balances and economic indicators, as the increasing trade deficit could raise concerns about the sustainability of Estonia's economic growth. Policymakers may need to consider strategies to bolster export competitiveness and manage import dependencies to maintain a healthy economic trajectory in the coming years.
