2026.02.2607:00:00UTC+00Turkey’s Trade Deficit Narrows Slightly in January 2026

Turkey’s trade balance showed a marginal improvement in January 2026, with the deficit easing to -8.38 billion from -8.40 billion previously, according to data updated on 26 February 2026.

While the change is modest, the slight narrowing of the trade gap may be watched closely by investors and policymakers looking for early signs of a shift in Turkey’s external position. The near-unchanged reading suggests that, for now, the country’s trade dynamics remain broadly stable at a substantial deficit level.

Market participants are likely to assess whether this minor adjustment reflects temporary factors or the beginning of a more sustained trend in Turkey’s trade performance, though the current data alone does not yet indicate a decisive turn.
