Further to the external merchandise trade statistics in value terms for January 2026 released earlier on, the Census and Statistics Department (C&SD) released today (March 17) the volume and price statistics of external merchandise trade for that month.
In January 2026, the volume of Hong Kong’s total exports of goods and imports of goods increased by 29.5% and 33.9% respectively over January 2025. Due to the difference in timing of the Chinese New Year holidays, it is more appropriate to analyse the trade figures for January and February taken together in making year-on-year comparison.
Changes in the unit value and volume of total exports of goods by main destination are shown in Table 1.
