FX.co ★ New Zealand Exports Climb to NZ$6.63B in February 2026, Extending Start-of-Year Momentum

New Zealand’s export sector strengthened in February 2026, with overseas sales rising to NZ$6.63 billion, up from NZ$6.10 billion in January 2026. The latest figures point to a solid start to the year for the country’s external sector.

The month-on-month increase of NZ$0.53 billion suggests improving demand for New Zealand goods abroad after January’s NZ$6.10 billion result. While detailed category breakdowns are not provided, the continued growth in export values is a key support for overall economic performance and the trade balance.

The updated data, released on 19 March 2026, will be closely watched by market participants and policymakers as they assess the strength and sustainability of New Zealand’s export-driven contribution to GDP in the early months of 2026.
