The Census and Statistics Department (C&SD) released the external merchandise trade statistics for April 2024. In April 2024, the values of Hong Kong's total exports and imports of goods both recorded year-on-year increases, at 11.9% and 3.7% respectively, vs consensus of 7.6% and 6.8% respectively.

In April 2024, the value of total exports of goods increased by 11.9% over a year earlier to $378.7 billion, after a year-on-year increase by 4.7% in March 2024. Concurrently, the value of imports of goods increased by 3.7% over a year earlier to $388.9 billion in April 2024, after a year-on-year increase by 5.3% in March 2024. A visible trade deficit of $10.2 billion, equivalent to 2.6% of the value of imports of goods, was recorded in April 2024.

For the first four months of 2024 as a whole, the value of total exports of goods increased by 11.9% over the same period in 2023. Concurrently, the value of imports of goods increased by 6.9%. A visible trade deficit of $93.9 billion, equivalent to 6.1% of the value of imports of goods, was recorded in the first four months of 2024.

Comparing the three-month period ending April 2024 with the preceding three months on a seasonally adjusted basis, the value of total exports of goods increased by 3.6%. Meanwhile, the value of imports of goods increased by 2.3%.

A Government spokesman said that the value of merchandise exports grew notably in April 2024 over a year earlier. Exports to the Mainland and the United States rose visibly, while those to the European Union fell. Those to other major Asian markets showed mixed performance.

Looking ahead, Hong Kong's export performance should improve further if external demand holds up, though geopolitical tensions and a longer period of tight financial conditions will bring uncertainties. The Government will monitor the situation closely.
