Latest Updates

The Czech Republic trade surplus narrowed to CZK 26.3 billion in June 2025 from CZK 30.5 billion in the same month last year, as exports rose less than imports. It was the highest trade surplus since March, as exports increased 7.4% to CZK 416.1, primarily attributed to higher sales of machinery transport equipment (+11.2%) and commodities not classified (+20.0%). Meanwhile, imports grew faster by 9.2% year-on-year to CZK 389.8, driven by higher purchases of food and live animals (+11.2%), beverages and tobacco (+18.5%), and mineral fuels and lubricants (+12.3%). For the first six months of the year, the trade surplus totaled CZK 138.3 billion, with exports up 4.4% and imports rising 5.4%.
