Import of Goods Value from France (1990-2023)

France’s imports rose from $234B in 1990 to $823.2B in 2022, reflecting its status as a major global economy. Growth accelerated in the early 2000s, with imports jumping from $329B in 2002 to $630B in 2007, driven by increased intra-EU trade and industrial demand. The 2008 financial crisis caused a contraction, but imports rebounded to $720B by 2011.

The peak of $823.2B in 2022 reflects rising energy costs and demand for advanced machinery and consumer goods. The 2023 decline to $786.1B suggests stabilization amid global economic adjustments. France’s import trajectory highlights its central role in the EU and its diversified economy.
