The balance of foreign trade in goods ended in January
2023 with a surplus of CZK 9.5bn at current prices, which was CZK 2.1bn higher
y/y. This is based on preliminary data from the Czech Statistical Office. The
result was positively influenced mainly by a higher surplus on trade in motor
vehicles by CZK 6.0bn. The negative impact was mainly due to a larger deficit
in trade in computers, electronic and optical equipment (CZK -2.5bn), petroleum
products (CZK -1.5bn) and oil and gas (CZK -1.3bn). The balance of agricultural
products became a liability. The balance of foreign trade with EU countries
improved by CZK 19.8bn, while the trade deficit with non-EU countries widened
by CZK 17.5bn.
