On March 16, 2026, Angola’s commercial exchanges with China were projected to reach approximately US$20 billion in 2025, according to figures reported by the state news agency from Luanda. The estimate reflects the sustained expansion of bilateral economic activity, particularly in energy and commodities, and reaffirms China’s role as Angola’s foremost trading partner.
The growth in trade aligns with broader efforts to diversify Angola’s economic relationships, deepen cooperation, and harness mutual investment opportunities in strategic sectors. While Angola’s exports to China remain dominated by petroleum and mineral products, imports include machinery, equipment, and manufactured goods.
The anticipated trade volume underscores enduring commercial collaboration between the two nations as Angola advances its development agenda and seeks to attract further foreign investment.
