FX.co ★ Chile’s Trade Surplus Narrows to $1.91B in April 2026, Down from March High

Chile’s trade balance surplus decreased in April 2026, easing to $1.91 billion after reaching $3.06 billion in March 2026, according to data updated on 7 May 2026. The latest figure marks a notable month-on-month moderation in Chile’s external surplus.

The shift from March’s stronger surplus suggests a cooling in net export performance heading into the second quarter of 2026, although Chile continues to post a positive trade balance. Investors and policymakers will be watching subsequent releases closely to gauge whether April’s pullback reflects temporary factors or an emerging trend in the country’s trade dynamics.
