FX.co ★ Vietnam’s Trade Deficit Narrows Slightly in February 2026

Vietnam’s trade gap narrowed marginally in February 2026, with the trade balance improving to a deficit of -1,040 million USD, compared with -1,078 million USD in January 2026.

The latest figures, updated on 6 March 2026, indicate a slight easing in external imbalances, though Vietnam remains in negative territory on its trade account. The modest improvement may reflect incremental changes in export or import dynamics over the month, but the overall deficit underscores ongoing pressures on the country’s trade position.

Market participants and analysts are likely to watch upcoming releases closely to determine whether February’s data marks the start of a gradual stabilization in Vietnam’s trade balance or merely a short-term fluctuation within a broader deficit trend.
