From the beginning of the past decade, Poland’s foreign trade turnover increased almost ten-fold. Poland exports processed fruit and vegetables, meat, dairy products, electromechanical products, vehicles, aircraft and vessels. Most of Poland's imports are capital goods needed for industrial retooling and for manufacturing inputs like machinery and transport equipment, chemicals, minerals, fuels and lubricants. European Union is by far its largest trading partner accounting for about 79% of exports and 64% of imports.

Latest Updates

Poland posted a €1.27 billion trade deficit in July 2025, widening from €1.17 billion a year earlier, as import growth outpaced exports. Exports rose 2.7% to €28.2 billion, marking the third straight month of gains, driven by re-exports of clothing, footwear, and toys, higher agricultural prices, and a rebound in the automotive sector, with strong sales of buses, cars, and trucks. However, metals and other intermediate goods remained a drag. Imports increased 3% to €29.5 billion, led by goods for re-export and a surge in passenger car purchases from China, the highest this year. Lower global oil prices limited fuel import values, while weak industrial activity curbed demand for intermediate goods.
