Italy’s trade surplus with non‑EU countries expanded in December 2025, signaling resilient external demand at the end of the year. According to the latest data updated on 29 January 2026, the Italian Non‑EU Trade Balance rose to €8.39 billion, up from €7.04 billion recorded in November 2025.
The month‑on‑month increase of €1.35 billion underscores an improving external position outside the European Union, with exports to non‑EU partners continuing to outpace imports. The stronger surplus in December suggests that non‑EU markets remained a key support for Italy’s trade performance as the year closed, providing an additional buffer for the country’s overall economic outlook.
