Estonia–Poland Transport Bridge: Trade and Opportunities for Businesses

-
Poland is one of Estonia’s most important trading partners. Annual trade volumes reach between €1.2–1.3 billion, and the trend has remained steadily upward in recent years. This is a significant figure, proving that ties between Estonia and Poland are not only cultural or political but also firmly rooted in economics and logistics.

Recent data shows that Estonia’s exports to Poland amounted to nearly USD 700 million in 2024. Imports from Poland are traditionally higher, yet the trade deficit has been narrowing — in June 2025 it stood at about €73.9 million, which is lower than a year earlier. This indicates that Estonian companies are finding more opportunities on the Polish market, while Polish goods continue to hold strong demand in Estonia.

From a logistics perspective, the Poland route is strategically vital for Estonian businesses. Goods move primarily as full truckloads (FTL) and less-than-truckloads (LTL). FTL shipments suit larger manufacturers and wholesalers, while LTL services enable smaller companies to trade efficiently between Estonia and Poland. Routes such as Tallinn–Warsaw and Tartu–Poznań are commonly used, though deliveries to smaller cities are arranged when needed. Looking ahead, infrastructure developments like Rail Baltica and Via Baltica will further strengthen trade flows between the two countries.

Transport is also influenced by political decisions. In July 2025, Poland temporarily reintroduced border checks with Lithuania. This reminded businesses how critical it is to work with a partner capable of quickly finding alternative solutions and keeping supply chains running smoothly even during sudden restrictions.

The Estonian economy has faced challenges in recent years, from GDP contraction to rising tax burdens. That is why companies need a reliable partner who can plan the movement of goods effectively and minimize logistics-related risks.

SCS Forwarding specializes in transport between Estonia and Poland. Our team organizes both LTL shipments and large FTL deliveries, offering solutions that take into account the nature of the cargo as well as the client’s schedule. We closely follow the specific requirements of Polish logistics and monitor regulatory changes that may affect routes through Lithuania and the other Baltic states.

Trade between Estonia and Poland is strong and diverse. Furniture, metal products, building materials, and electronics move daily between the two countries, and the need for fast, reliable logistics solutions is only increasing. SCS Forwarding ensures this flow remains seamless, allowing clients to focus on their core business.
