FX.co ★ Hong Kong Export Growth Accelerates in March, Extending Strong Start to 2026

Hong Kong’s exports surged in March 2026, with growth accelerating to 35.8% month-over-month, up sharply from a 24.7% increase in February 2026. The latest figures, updated on 28 April 2026, indicate a significant strengthening in external trade momentum compared with the previous month.

The data show that March’s “Actual” reading reflects the change in exports from March to February 2026, while the “Previous” figure captures the change in February relative to January 2026. The jump from 24.7% to 35.8% suggests that Hong Kong’s export sector not only maintained its early-year recovery pace but also gained further traction as the first quarter drew to a close.

On a month-over-month basis, the continued acceleration underscores a robust short-term rebound in outbound shipments. While the figures do not break down performance by destination or product category, the steep month-to-month increases point to improving external demand conditions compared with the start of the year.
