由于出口增长超过进口,德国的贸易顺差从1月份向上修正的162亿欧元增加到2025年2月的177亿欧元,略低于178亿欧元的预测。1月份出口环比增长1.8%,达到1316亿欧元的十个月高点,此前一个月没有增长,这得益于对欧盟国家(0.5%)的销售,特别是对欧元区(0.3%)和非欧元区(1.0%)的销售。此外,由于对美国(8.5%)和中国(0.6%)的销售额增加,但对英国(-3.8%)和俄罗斯(-3.0%)的销售额下降,对第三国的销售额增长了3.2%。与此同时,进口增长0.7%,达到1138亿欧元的20个月高点。来自欧盟的进口增长了2.3%,其中欧元区(2.8%)和非欧元区(1.4%)的进口都有所增长。相反,来自第三国的采购量下降了1.0%,其中来自美国(-3.9%)、俄罗斯(-4.5%)和英国(-5.2%)的采购量减少,而来自中国的采购量增加(7.1%)。

Exports rose by 1.8% mom to a ten-month high of EUR 131.6 billion in January, after showing no growth in the previous month, supported by sales to EU countries (0.5%), specifically to the Euro area (0.3%) and the non-Euro area (1.0%). Additionally, sales to third countries expanded by 3.2%, due to higher sales to the US (8.5%) and China (0.6%), but falling sales to the UK (-3.8%) and Russia (-3.0%). Meanwhile, imports climbed by 0.7% to a 20-month high of EUR 113.8 billion. Imports from the EU grew by 2.3%, with increases from both the Euro area (2.8%) and the non-Euro area (1.4%).
