FX.co ★ Thailand Import Growth at Near 5-Year High

Thailand’s imports jumped 35.7% year-on-year in March 2026, up from a 31.8% increase in February and marking the fastest expansion since August 2021. This sharp rise reflected robust domestic demand, supported by ongoing government stimulus measures designed to spur consumption and investment. At the same time, heightened geopolitical tensions linked to the war involving Iran further fueled import growth by driving global energy prices higher.
