Export growth has been a major component supporting China's rapid economic expansion. In 2019 China's exports increased 0.5 percent, slowing sharply from a 10 percent rise in 2018, with sales to the US falling sharply amid ongoing trade tensions. Machinery and transport equipment accounted for 48 percent of total exports, in particular electrical machinery, apparatus and appliances (14 percent), telecommunications and sound recording and reproducing apparatus and equipment (12 percent), office machines and automatic data processing machines (8 percent), and general industrial machinery and equipment, and machine parts (5 percent). Other major export categories were: miscellaneous manufactured articles (23 percent) on the back of furniture and parts thereof (3 percent); manufactured goods classified chiefly by material (16 percent) such as textile yarn, fabrics, made-up articles (5 percent), manufactures of metals (4 percent) and iron and steel (2 percent); chemicals and related products (6 percent); and food and live animals (3 percent). The EU and US were the largest destinations of China's shipments, accounting for 17 percent of exports each, followed by Hong Kong (11 percent), Japan (6 percent), South Korea (4 percent), Vietnam (4 percent), Germany (3 percent), India (3 percent) and the Netherlands (3 percent). The UK, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Russia, Australia, Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines accounted for 2 percent each.

China’s exports of rare earth magnets to the US surged 660% in June 2025 from May, reaching 353 metric tons, according to data released Sunday by the General Administration of Customs. Globally, China exported 3,188 metric tons of rare earth permanent magnets in June, a 157.5% increase from 1,238 tons in May, reflecting progress from agreements reached in June aimed at easing restrictions and restoring global supply. However, exports were still down 38.1% year-on-year compared to June 2024. China—which supplies more than 90% of the world’s rare-earth magnets—signed a series of accords with the US last month to reopen rare-earth trade channels. These agreements followed export controls imposed by Beijing in April during the peak of trade tensions, which had severely disrupted global supply chains and triggered shutdowns at some auto factories. Despite the recent rebound, exports for the first half of 2025 totaled 22,319 tons, marking an 18.9% decline compared to the same period in 2024.
