Decline in Honduras’s trade balance The large trade deficit Honduras experienced with China and the United States is part of the larger picture of the country’s consistent overall trade deficit, which has seen a significant increase over the last decade. In 2001, Honduras recorded a trade deficit of about 1.78 billion U.S. dollars; the amount ballooned to over 5.41 billion dollars in 2022. This is a consequence of the country’s need to import large amounts of petroleum and other industrial oils to support its development. In contrast, the local resources that form the largest part of its exports are agricultural commodities.
