Austria recorded a trade surplus of €0.34 billion in February 2026, reversing a €0.28 billion deficit from the same month last year. This marks the country’s first trade surplus since October 2024, driven by a 2.0% rise in exports to €16.16 billion. Growth was led by increased sales of machinery and vehicles, processed goods, and chemical products. Intra-EU exports surged by 4.3%, particularly to Germany, Austria’s top trading partner, while extra-EU exports declined by 2.5%. Meanwhile, imports fell by 1.9% to €15.82 billion, partly due to reduced purchases of chemical products and processed goods. Intra-EU imports dropped by 3.4%, while imports from non-EU countries increased by 1.1%.
