In 2018, the current account on the balance of international payments (BoP) in Japan recorded a surplus of around 19.2 trillion Japanese yen, marking the first decrease in balance since 2014. Despite a surplus in the trade balance and primary income, the sudden cost increase of goods imports affected the growth of the current account negatively.
