Germany’s gross domestic product (GDP) rose 0.3% in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to the previous quarter, according to the Federal Statistical Office (Destatis). The increase followed two years of recession, with household and government final consumption expenditure driving growth. Year-on-year, GDP rose 0.6% at price-adjusted levels, though the 0.4% increase after price and calendar adjustments reflected 0.7 more working days in the period. Destatis confirmed its annual GDP estimate for 2025, showing a 0.2% rise compared to the previous year. The agency revised quarterly data for 2025, increasing price-adjusted GDP growth in the first two quarters by 0.1 percentage points. Detailed recalculations are available in the full press release.
