Thailand's trade deficit widened to USD 2.73 billion in November 2025 from USD 2.20 billion in the same month a year earlier. It was the fifth time of a trade gap this year, with imports growing much faster than exports. Year-on-year, purchases jumped 17.6% to USD, accelerating from a 16.3% growth in October and marking the fastest pace since May, as domestic demand strengthened amid government support measures toward year-end. Meanwhile, exports grew at a slower pace of 7.1% to USD 27.45 billion, though this still represented an improvement from the previous month’s 5.7% increase, supported by resilient foreign demand as the year draws to a close.
