Bulgária Balança Comercial

Bulgaria’s trade deficit widened to BGN 1,974.5 million in January 2025 from BGN 1,044.3 million in the corresponding month of the previous year. Imports surged by 10.4% year-on-year to BGN 8,187.6 million, primarily attributed to higher purchases from non-EU countries (30.8%). However, purchases declined from EU countries (-2.6%). Meanwhile, exports fell by 2.5% from a year earlier to BGN 6,213.1 million, mainly due to a notable decrease of sales to non-EU countries (-10.5%). Conversely, sales to EU countries (1.9%) increased.
