The most notable trends concern the country’s trading partners.

Exports to the European Union grew by 34.5%, accounting for more than half of the total increase on their own; when combined with exports to India (+87.9%), they explain nearly 70% of the overall growth. Conversely, exports to the United States fell by 6.5% year-to-date, impacted by new U.S. tariffs, while China remains the primary destination, with an increase of 12.0% from January through September.

These and other data can be found in the Quarterly Report on Brazil’s International Trade, released by the Brazilian Center for International Relations (CEBRI). The document analyzes export and import performance between July and September, the behavior of key trading partners, and the impacts of tariff measures, sanitary restrictions, and shifts in international trade conditions — while also outlining priorities for Brazilian trade policy.
