ITALY'S trade balance showed a deficit of 598 million euros ($A761.64 million) in August, ending three months of surplus, the National Institute of Statistics said.
The deficit was due to trade with non-EU nations, which showed a deficit of one billion euros, while trade within the European Union held a surplus of 400 million euros, the institute said.
Italy's trade balance had shown strong surpluses in May, June and July, suggesting the economy was doing better than feared despite the eurozone debt crisis.
Although in deficit, the August balance is an improvement from 12 months ago, when Italy posted a 2.9 billion euro deficit.
In August, exports rose by 3.9 per cent, driven by a 4.7 per cent boost for exports to fellow European Union countries.
But a 4.4 per cent rise in imports was largely due to a increase in spending on energy and durable goods, the institute said.
