Belgium Imports

Belgium's imports in August 2025 fell to €35.38 billion, a 10.7% decrease from €39.6 billion in July 2025. This represents the lowest import level since August 2021. The decline is linked to US import tariffs, Eurozone economic slowdown and port congestion at Antwerp-Bruges. Belgium's record low imports was €6.98 billion in July 1993 and record high was €54.04 billion in September 2022.
