FX.co ★ Lithuania’s Trade Deficit Widens to €0.86 Billion in May 2026

Lithuania’s trade balance deteriorated in May 2026, with the deficit expanding to €0.86 billion, up from €0.61 billion recorded in April 2026. The latest data, updated on 10 July 2026, indicate a notable month-on-month weakening in the country’s external trade position.

The widening gap suggests that Lithuania’s import bill continued to outpace export earnings more sharply than in the prior month. While detailed drivers of the shift were not disclosed, the move from April to May underscores increasing pressure on the trade balance as the second quarter of 2026 unfolded. Policymakers and market participants are likely to watch upcoming releases closely for signs of whether this trend stabilizes or deepens in the months ahead.
