Pakistan’s exports to the United States have seen a steady increase in the first half of the fiscal year, reaching $3 billion.
This growth comes amid rising trade activity and a favorable balance for Pakistan in bilateral commerce.
According to official data, Pakistan exported goods worth $3 billion to the US during the first six months of the fiscal year, marking a 3–4 percent increase compared to the same period last year.
Imports from the US during this period amounted to $1.62 billion, resulting in a trade surplus of $1.36 billion in Pakistan’s favor, the Ministry of Commerce reported.
Last year, Pakistan had exported $2.9 billion to the US in the same period, with total annual exports reaching $5.28 billion and bilateral trade totaling $8.71 billion.
Sector-wise export performance
Textiles, Pakistan’s key export sector, recorded a 4 percent rise, generating $2.47 billion in revenue. Manufacturing and mining products saw a 3 percent increase to $434 million, while agricultural and food exports grew 9 percent to $99 million.
Experts note that these gains reflect a resilient export sector, despite global trade uncertainties and the higher US tariff rate on Pakistani products at 19 percent, compared to India’s 18 percent.
