Kosovo imported goods worth over 112m euros from Serbia for six months

Despite continuing promises of lowering import with Serbia, the latest data for this year's 6-month witness the opposite.
Kosovo Customs data shows that during January 2026 alone, Kosovo has imported goods from Serbia, worth 112 million and 301 thousand and 046 euros, writes Infocus, the Periscope broadcast.
Data analysis shows that imports from Serbia are not limited to raw materials or industrial products, but also include basic food products, drugs, drinks, construction materials and daily usage goods, which continue to take place in the Kosovo market.
The figures show that the trend of imports from Serbia has not changed even this year. During 2025, Kosovo imported goods from Serbia worth about 234m euros, while in the first six months of 2026 that figure has already reached 112,301,046.17 euros. If the current rate of imports continues in the second half of the year, the value of goods imported from Serbia is expected to be near last year's level again, even at risk of overcoming it. This shows that, despite political developments and political statements and promises for reducing economic dependence, Kosovo's market continues to rely to a considerable extent on products coming from Serbia.
