由于进口增长超过出口,拉脱维亚的贸易逆差从去年同期的2.227亿欧元扩大到2025年5月的3.008亿欧元。进口同比增长5.6%,达到189.18亿欧元,主要原因是电动机械设备(6.9%)、铁路或有轨电车车辆以外的车辆及其零部件(16.5%)、机械和机械设备(18.6%)以及药品(24.6%)的采购量增加。来自欧盟(8%)和其他国家(3.7%)的进口都有所增加,而来自独联体国家的进口则大幅下降(-43.6%)。与此同时,出口增长1.4%,达到15.91亿欧元,主要得益于矿物燃料、矿物油及其蒸馏产品(17.2%)、铁路或有轨电车车辆以外的车辆及其零部件(14.4%)和药品(16.8%)的销售增长。对其他国家的出口增长了21.9%,而对欧盟(-2.6%)和独联体国家(-14.9%)的出口下降了。
