Over the period since 1999, Germany and France have been the European Union's largest importing countries. As they are the EU's largest member states in terms of population and gross domestic product (GDP), this is perhaps not surprising.

As Belgium and the Netherlands have smaller economies in absolute terms than Italy, their imports are a more significant part of their economy, measured as a share of GDP. As of March 2025, Germany's imports stood at 76,132 million euros, while France's were at 37,959 million euros, and Italy's at 30,405 million euros.
