The United States is among Thailand's largest export markets, and Japan is among the country's biggest sources of imports. In the 1990s Thailand's trade deficit grew markedly until the last part of the decade, when a trade surplus was achieved largely as a result of a contraction in imports. Foreign debt declined until the last part of the decade, when it jumped substantially, peaking in 2000, before beginning a descent in the early 21st century.
