Exports to US climb amid Trump threats
Manila Bulletin
|May 31, 2025
Philippine exports to the United States (US) continued to grow, while imported goods from China slid in April—when US President Donald Trump imposed tariffs on America's trading partners.
The latest preliminary data from the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) on Friday, May 30, showed that shipments of Philippine-made merchandise to the US increased by 5.9 percent year-on-year last April to $1.03 billion—the only export destination that surpassed the $1-billion mark that month.
As such, the US remained the Philippines' top export market during the first four months of 2025, with sales totaling $4.26 billion, up 10.6 percent year-on-year.
It was in April when Trump, during his so-called "Liberation Day," announced a 17-percent reciprocal tariff on Philippine exports to the US.
