FX.co ★ Brazil’s Trade Surplus Widens to $4.21B in February 2026

Brazil’s trade surplus expanded in February 2026, with the trade balance rising to $4.21 billion, up from $3.82 billion recorded in January 2026. The latest data, updated on 5 March 2026, signal a month-on-month improvement in the country’s external accounts.

The increase in the trade balance suggests that Brazil either boosted its exports, reduced imports, or some combination of both relative to January. While detailed composition data were not provided, the higher surplus points to sustained support from the country’s foreign sector at the start of 2026.

Against a backdrop where global trade dynamics and commodity prices remain key for Brazil, the stronger February figure may help underpin investor confidence in the country’s balance of payments and macroeconomic stability, at least in the short term.
