Norway's trade surplus narrowed to NOK 55.9 billion in April 2025 from NOK 61.7 billion in the corresponding month of the previous year, as exports dropped more than imports. Year-on-year, imports fell by 5.3% to NOK 90.3 billion, weighed down by lower purchases of fuels, lubricating oils, electric power (-49.1%), beverages and tobacco (-7.7%), and processed goods grouped mainly by material (-5.5%). Meanwhile, exports fell at a faster rate of 7.3% year-on-year to a seven-month low of NOK 146.2 billion, ahead of the implementation of US tariffs. The decline was mainly driven by reduced sales of beverages and tobacco (-16.1%), fuels, lubricating oils, and electric power (-13.5%), animal and vegetable oils, fats, and waxes (-13%), and non-edible raw materials excluding fuels (-10.5%). For the first four months of the year, the country’s trade surplus totaled NOK 292 billion, marking a 19.1% increase compared to the same period a year ago.
