Overview
Tonga's exports stood at $90.6M in 2025, a decline of +$13.9M from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach $90.6M by 2025. Tonga ranked 173rd globally.
Tonga’s export performance has risen dramatically from the all‑time trough of 3,671,360.59 in 1971 to a World Bank‑reported 90,551,518.79 in 2025, placing the kingdom at 173rd globally. The upward trajectory peaked in 2019 at 106,016,279.65 before a modest contraction, reflecting the volatility of its small‑scale, fisheries‑ and agricultural‑driven trade base. Over the 49‑year span, export growth outpaced many Pacific peers; for example, Nauru recorded 92,452,226.25, a figure slightly higher than Tonga’s 2025 level, while Timor‑Leste’s exports remained considerably lower at 22,291,833.87. São Tomé and Principe, despite its larger absolute volume of 135,652,270.45, occupies a different regional context, underscoring the relative significance of Tonga’s progress within Oceania. Continued diversification into value‑added products and stronger integration into regional supply chains could sustain the post‑peak recovery, potentially restoring export values to or beyond the 2019 high.
