UK trade: June 2022

What's in the bulletin?

Total imports of goods, excluding precious metals, decreased by £0.6 billion (1.1%) in June 2022 because of a £1.1 billion (4.1%) fall in imports from EU countries, while imports from non-EU countries increased by £0.6 billion (2.1%).
Total exports of goods, excluding precious metals, fell by £2.7 billion (8.0%) in June 2022, driven by a £2.0 billion (11.9%) decrease in exports to non-EU countries, while exports to EU countries decreased by £0.7 billion (3.9%).
The large fall in exports to non-EU countries in June 2022 was primarily driven by lower exports of miscellaneous manufactures and chemicals, which both decreased by £0.7 billion.
