Japan's exports fell 6.8% in March from a year earlier, down for the sixth straight month, Ministry of Finance data showed on Wednesday, as a slowdown in China and emerging markets hurts external demand.
The fall compares with a 6.9% decrease expected by economists in a Reuters poll. It followed a 4.0% drop in February.
Imports fell 14.9% in March, versus the median estimate for a 16.2% decrease from the year earlier.
The trade balance came to a surplus of 755 billion yen ($9.24 billion), versus the median estimate for a surplus of 834.6 billion yen.
