Irlande Balance Commerciale

Ireland’s trade surplus narrowed to €5.25 billion in August 2025 from €6.25 billion a year earlier, as exports fell more sharply than imports. Total exports declined 6.7% to €16.2 billion, driven by a 20.4% drop in medical & pharmaceutical products to €6.5 billion, partly offset by a 35.7% surge in organic chemicals to €2 billion. Exports to the US slumped 38.5% to €4.1 billion due to a sharp fall in chemical shipments, while sales to the EU rose 24.6% to €7.7 billion. The US, Netherlands, and Germany remained Ireland’s top export markets. Imports edged 1.5% lower to €11 billion, with reduced purchases of pharmaceuticals (-12.3%) and machinery (-22.8%) partly offset by higher imports of organic chemicals (+21.8%). The US, Great Britain, and Germany were Ireland’s largest suppliers, accounting for nearly 40% of total imports.
