Italian Exports to UAE Surge in 2025, Set to Top €9 Billion

Italian exports to the UAE are booming in 2025, with projections suggesting they will surpass €9 billion by the year's end. This remarkable growth, fuelled by a 19% increase in the first half of the year, has seen trade reach €4.5 billion. Non-oil trade alone has hit around €6 billion in the same period.

The surge in trade is driven by various sectors. Italian exports in renewable energy to the UAE, for instance, exceeded €250 million in 2024, growing at an annual rate of over 30%. This growth is part of a broader trend, with industrial technology exports increasing by more than 23% in 2025. More than 600 Italian companies currently operate in the UAE, testament to the strategic importance of the region as a hub for Italian businesses.

The UAE's strategic location allows Italian companies to access the Gulf, wider Middle East, and Asia. This has led to unprecedented growth in the economic partnership between Italy and the UAE in 2025.

The growth in Italian exports to the UAE, particularly in sectors like renewable energy and industrial technology, reflects the deepening economic ties between the two nations. With more than 600 Italian companies operating in the UAE, this partnership is set to continue flourishing, making the UAE a vital market for Italian businesses.
