The main export products were mineral fuels (€6.8 billion), electrical machinery (€4.3 billion) and machinery (€4.2 billion). Compared with 2021, exports grew the most for mineral fuels (up €4.1 billion) as Ukraine’s previous imports of these fuels from Russia and Belarus declined and were partly replaced by imports from the EU.

The key product groups imported from Ukraine in 2024 included agricultural products such as cereals, worth €4.4 billion, animal or vegetable fats and oils (€3.1 billion) and oil seeds and related products (€2.5 billion).

Compared with 2021, imports of cereals increased by €2.7 billion, animal or vegetable fats and oils by €1.0 billion, and oil seeds and related products by €1.1 billion.
