Poland’s current-account deficit widened to €2.419 billion in July 2026 from a revised €1.780 billion a year earlier, marking the largest shortfall since February 2022 and exceeding the €2.341 billion market forecast. The goods deficit increased to €1.843 billion from €1.063 billion as imports rose 12.6% year-on-year to €33.21 billion, while exports climbed 10.3% to €31.37 billion. Imports were driven mainly by stronger purchases of capital goods, especially computer hardware, and faster growth in passenger-car imports. China became Poland’s largest goods supplier for the first time, overtaking Germany. The services surplus fell to €2.722 billion from €3.110 billion, and the secondary-income gap widened to €307 million from €78 million, while the primary-income deficit narrowed to €2.944 billion from €3.749 billion. Record computer hardware shipments and higher prices supported exports of copper, raw silver and petroleum products, although automotive and furniture exports declined again.
