Singapore Imports

Singapore's imports reached 55 billion SGD in September 2025, an increase from 52.69 billion SGD in August 2025. This 4.4% month-over-month rise was driven by a 15% increase in capital goods imports, supporting semiconductor manufacturing expansion. Electronics and components imports rose 10% due to global consumer electronics demand. Singapore's industrial production increased by 3% in September 2025, signaling higher demand for imported intermediate goods. Singapore's record low imports was 266.38 million SGD in July 1964 and record high was 60.52 billion SGD in July 2022.
