USA's foreign trade with France, exports to France and imports from France in February 2025


The text of the following analysis is produced by a computer program.

In February 2025 France represented 1.8 per cent of USA's foreign trade in goods, 2.2 % of USA's exports and 1.6 % of imports. In February France was USA's 15. most important foreign trade partner. $8.4 billion worth of trade was 3.9 per cent lower than in February of the previous year. In February the trade balance with France was $973 million in deficit for United States of America.

The value of imports from France decreased by 0.1 per cent compared to in February of the previous year, thus amounting to $4.7 billion in February 2025. Major product categories of imports from France were Sitc714 (engines and motors, non-electric (other than those of groups 712, 713 and 718); parts, n.e.s., of these engines and motors), representing 11.7 percent of imports, Sitc792 (aircraft and associated equipment; spacecraft (including satellites) and spacecraft launch vehicles; parts thereof) 7.6 % and Sitc112 (alcoholic beverages) 7.4 % of the imports.

The value of exports to France declined by 8.3 per cent compared to in February of the previous year, thus amounting to $3.7 billion in February 2025. The largest product groups of exports were: Sitc792 (aircraft and associated equipment; spacecraft (including satellites) and spacecraft launch vehicles; parts thereof), which represented a share of 28.7 per cent of total exports, Sitc343 (natural gas, whether or not liquefied) 15.1 % and Sitc333 (petroleum oils and oils obtained from bituminous minerals, crude) 4.3 % of the exports.

Development during January-February 2025

During January-February trade in goods with France has grown slower than USA's trade in goods with the rest of the world. During January-February, the value of trade in goods between the two countries rose to $17.6 billion. Growth compared to the corresponding period of the previous year was 3.6 percent. During January-February the value of imports was $9.7 billion. The export value was $8.0 billion. Compared to the corresponding period of the previous year, the value of imports increased by 1.7 % and the value of exports by 6.0 %. The largest product group in terms of imports has been Sitc792 (aircraft and associated equipment; spacecraft (including satellites) and spacecraft launch vehicles; parts thereof), worth $1.0 billion. In export the largest value had Sitc792 (aircraft and associated equipment; spacecraft (including satellites) and spacecraft launch vehicles; parts thereof), worth being $2.1 billion. From USA's point of view, the trade balance between the countries in January-February remained in deficit. The trade deficit was $1.7 billion. The trade deficit narrowed compared to the corresponding period in 2024. At that time, the deficit was $2.0 billion.
