Thailand’s current account balance shifted sharply into positive territory in December 2025, reversing a deficit recorded a month earlier, according to data updated on 30 January 2026.
After posting a current account deficit of -0.600 billion dollars in November 2025, Thailand’s external position improved to a surplus of 3.100 billion dollars in December 2025. The move from deficit to surplus within a single month signals a notable turnaround in the country’s balance with the rest of the world during the final month of the year.
The latest figures, reflecting the difference between Thailand’s earnings from abroad and its payments to foreign entities, will be closely watched by market participants assessing the country’s external resilience and potential implications for capital flows and the currency.
