July key exports rise 24.2% on AI-driven electronics demand

Electronics NODX jumped 112% from 105.1% in June.

Singapore’s non-oil domestic exports (NODX) rose 24.2% in July, extending the 20.8% increase in June, as electronics continued to benefit from artificial intelligence (AI)-related demand.

Electronics NODX jumped 112% from 105.1% in June, driven primarily by disk media products, integrated circuits (ICs), and personal computers (PCs), according to Enterprise Singapore (EnterpriseSG).

Exports of disk media products surged 339.1%, whilst PCs grew 120.8%. ICs increased 84.5%.

Overall NODX climbed 19.4% in the first seven months of 2026.

Exports to the US rose 62.8% in July, driven by disk media products, PCs, and telecommunications equipment.

Shipments to China also grew 37.6%, supported by specialised machinery, non-monetary gold and ICs, whilst NODX to Taiwan increased 32.4%. Exports to Hong Kong rose 36.4%, whilst those to South Korea advanced 53.3%.

In contrast, NODX to the European Union fell 35.5%.

Meanwhile, non-electronic exports slipped 2.3%, following a 2.8% decrease in the past month.

EnterpriseSG said the contraction was led by pharmaceuticals, which dropped 56.7% from a high base a year earlier, alongside declines in petrochemicals and food preparations.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
