In the 2nd quarter of 2024, Germany's GDP declined slightly by 0.1% from the previous quarter, after adjusting for price, seasonal, and calendar effects, confirming earlier preliminary results. Year-over-year, the GDP saw a modest growth of 0.3% before calendar adjustment, and no change when calendar effects are considered.

Foreign trade did not contribute positively, with exports decreasing by 0.2% and imports remaining unchanged.
