The report focuses primarily on the balance of trade between Japan, the EU and its constituent Member States in 2021. The report begins by analysing Japanese trade with the EU as a whole (both for goods and services) and then provides a country-by-country analysis for each individual EU Member States. It also provides a breakdown of goods traded between Japan and EU by category (i.e. chemicals, manufactured goods, food and livestock, etc.). Finally, it includes some information about bilateral agreements that have been signed in 2021 between the EU or each Member State and Japan.
