Estonian foreign trade trends

Overview

Estonia’s trade performance showed growth in both goods and services during mid-2026.

In June, Estonia’s goods trade saw a 15% year-on-year increase in both exports and imports. Exports reached approximately 1.7 billion euros, while imports were roughly 2.1 billion euros, creating a trade deficit of 413 million euros. Primary export drivers included electrical equipment, agricultural products, and food, with Finland serving as the largest export partner.

By the second quarter of 2026, the service sector demonstrated a different trend, with the service export surplus exceeding one billion euros for the first time. Service exports grew by 5% compared to the previous year, totaling over 3.7 billion euros, while imports rose by 1% to nearly 2.7 billion euros. This surplus was largely driven by telecommunications, computer, and information services, as well as business and transport services. Key partners for these service exports included Finland, the United States, and Germany.
