The foreign trade balance between the 27 European Union countries and Mercosur's full members (Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay) had been in favor of the EU between 2012 and 2021. Inter-regional trade between these two blocs went from Mercosur having a trade surplus of almost six billion euros in 2011 to a foreign trade balance in favor of the EU of over eight billion euros in 2013. In 2022, though, the EU imported around 7.5 billion euros more than it has exported to the Mercosur. But in 2023, the balance became positive again for the Europeans, amounting to nearly 1.9 billion euros.
