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 recorded a €2.15 billion trade deficit in August 2025, widening marginally from €2.11 billion a year earlier, as exports lost steam after three months of growth. Exports slipped 1.4% year on year to €25.0 billion, weighed down by weaker sales of transport equipment — particularly electric batteries — and softer demand for consumer durables. These declines were partly offset by stronger shipments of agricultural goods, clothing re-exports and computer equipment. Imports fell 1.2% to €27.1 billion, driven mainly by a sharp drop in fuel imports amid lower oil prices. Most other import categories recorded modest declines, though inbound shipments of passenger cars and consumer goods — including clothing, footwear and gaming consoles — continued to rise.
