Methodology & source
Eurostat Comext DS-045409; EU27_2020 reporter; IMPORT flow; identified extra-EU country suppliers; monthly observations for January–June 2025 and January–June 2026. Trade value is reported in EUR. QUANTITY_IN_100KG was multiplied by 100 to obtain net mass in kg. Rankings exclude EU27 members, WORLD, geographic aggregates and pseudo-partners. Identified suppliers reconcile exactly to the official extra-EU aggregate in both periods. Scope is strictly CN8 84862000 and does not represent all semiconductor manufacturing equipment, EU production, consumption, installed capacity or total market size.
2026 figures currently cover January through June. Trade statistics may be revised by Eurostat after initial publication. No total-market size is inferred.
