30.04.202601:00:00UTC+00Philippines Trade Deficit Widens to $4.51 Billion in March 2026

The Philippines’ trade deficit deepened in March 2026, with the gap between imports and exports expanding to -$4,512.0 million, according to data updated on 30 April 2026. This marks a deterioration from February 2026, when the trade balance stood at -$3,683.0 million.

The wider deficit indicates that the value of goods the country imported continued to outpace the value of its exports in March, adding pressure to the external sector. While the data provided does not specify the drivers behind the shift, the month‑on‑month increase in the trade gap highlights persistent imbalances in the country’s merchandise trade position as the first quarter of 2026 concluded.
