Iran’s non-oil trade tops $94b in 10 months
TEHRAN – Iran’s total non-oil trade reached $94.123 billion in the first 10 months of the current Iranian calendar year (March 21, 2025-January 20, 2026), the Islamic Republic of Iran Customs Administration (IRICA) said.
In a report carried by IRNA, customs data showed total trade stood at 163.213 million tons over the period.
In value terms, trade was down 11.36 percent year on year, while volumes rose two percent.
Exports amounted to 130.036 million tons worth $45.015 billion, up 1.44 percent by weight but down 6.3 percent in value compared with the same period last year.
Imports totaled 33.177 million tons valued at $49.107 billion, marking a 4.6 percent rise in volume but a 15.6 percent decline in value year on year.
Iran exported non-oil goods worth $41.243 billion in the first nine months of the current Iranian year (March 21-December 21, 2025), customs data showed, as shipment volumes rose slightly despite a decline in export value.
According to figures released by IRICA, Iran shipped 118.901 million tons of goods abroad during the period, marking a one percent increase in volume compared with the same period last year.
The value of exports, however, fell 5.78 percent year on year.
The data showed that Iran’s total foreign trade in the nine-month period amounted to 148.226 million tons valued at $85.394 billion.
Overall trade value declined 10.92 percent from a year earlier, while total trade volume increased 1.36 percent.
Imports accounted for 29.325 million tons of goods worth $44.151 billion, customs figures showed.
Import volumes rose 2.75 percent compared with the same period last year, while their value dropped 15.23 percent.
The figures point to continued pressure on trade revenues amid lower values, even as the physical volume of exports and imports recorded modest growth.
