Thailand Current Account Surplus Widens in September

Thailand recorded a current account surplus of USD 1.87 billion in September 2025 from USD 1.07 billion in the same month a year earlier. The increase was mainly driven by a stronger trade surplus, which rose to USD 3.64 billion from USD 2.82 billion in September 2024, as exports climbed to USD 30.63 billion from USD 25.69 billion, outpacing imports, which increased to USD 26.99 billion from USD 22.87 billion. Offsetting this, the deficit in net services, primary income, and secondary income remained broadly stable at USD 1.77 billion. In addition, the financial account showed an overall surplus of USD 1.72 billion, supported by flows from the central bank and other depositary corporations, despite a wider government net outflow.
