Pakistan’s exports of goods and services to the United States rose 4.44 per cent to $1.716 billion during the first quarter of fiscal year 2026-27, according to State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) data reported in Islamabad on November 2, 2026.
What happened?
The SBP figures, reported by the Associated Press of Pakistan (APP), show exports to the US increased from $1.643 billion in July-September 2025 to $1.716 billion in the same quarter of the current fiscal year. The United States remains Pakistan’s largest single export market.
Key details
- Exports to the US: $1.716 billion in July-September 2026-27, up 4.44% from $1.643 billion a year earlier.
- Pakistan’s overall exports rose 7.65% in the quarter, from $7.853 billion to $8.454 billion.
- Imports from the US jumped 45.43% to $659.231 million, from $453.285 million a year earlier.
- Overall imports increased 14.30%, from $15.558 billion to $17.784 billion.
- China was the second-largest export destination at $663.567 million (up 17.95%), followed by the United Kingdom at $612.305 million, according to the SBP data.
What it means for people in Pakistan
For exporters, steady growth in the US market — Pakistan’s biggest single buyer — supports factory orders and jobs in textiles and other export industries. The faster rise in imports from the US, however, means the trade balance with America is narrowing, so exporters will be watching whether the growth in shipments can keep pace in the coming quarters.
