In April 2025, Slovakia experienced a significant widening of its current account deficit, which reached EUR 458.9 million, compared to EUR 107.9 million during the same month of the previous year.

Furthermore, the surplus in the services account decreased to EUR 39.9 million from the previous year's figure of EUR 61.4 million.
