EU Furniture Import Share
Last updated:
Source: Eurostat Comext DS-045409 imports and exports for HS 9401, 9402 and 9403, excluding EU27 member states and aggregate partner codes so only extra-EU partner-country rows are included; Eurostat-based EU furniture production turnover.
Source description: Annual EU furniture import share calculated as extra-EU imports divided by apparent EU furniture consumption. Apparent consumption is EU furniture production plus extra-EU imports minus extra-EU exports.

Key findings:
- In 2025, EU furniture import share was broadly stable versus 2024, suggesting little change in sourcing reliance.
- The import share is above the start of the series, showing greater reliance on imported furniture supply over the period.
- Compared with EU peers (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, US), EU has a lower import-share position, showing a more domestic-oriented supply structure.

EU furniture import share measures how much of apparent EU furniture consumption is supplied by imports from outside the EU. It is designed for market analysts, manufacturers, retailers and sourcing teams that need a clear view of the EU furniture market's reliance on non-EU supply rather than intra-EU trade.
Market Context
The EU is both a major furniture production base and a large consumer market, so import value alone does not show whether outside suppliers are gaining structural weight. This indicator compares extra-EU imports with apparent consumption, making it easier to assess sourcing dependence, supplier exposure and the balance between EU-made furniture and imported assortments.
Use the page as a high-level market-structure benchmark. It is not a retail sales share, but it helps explain whether changes in EU furniture imports are large enough to change the supply mix when read alongside EU furniture exports and EU production turnover.
