Taiwan's current account surplus expanded significantly to USD 45.84 billion in the third quarter of 2025, compared to USD 25.08 billion in the same period the previous year, setting a new record high. The goods trade surplus surged to USD 49.83 billion from USD 27.93 billion, propelled by robust export growth driven by strong advancements in AI and other emerging technologies, as well as increased demand for new electronic products. Additionally, the primary income surplus rose to USD 2.64 billion from USD 2.14 billion, indicating higher returns from residents' overseas direct investments. However, the services deficit saw a slight increase to USD 4.08 billion from USD 3.90 billion, attributed to higher travel expenditures and a decline in freight service income. The secondary income deficit also widened to USD 2.54 billion from USD 1.08 billion, primarily due to a rise in outbound workers' remittances.
