The United Arab Emirates (UAE) imported 7,200 tonnes of chicken eggs worth US$8.6 million from Russia in 2025, becoming the leader in purchasing this Russian product in value terms, the Agroexport federal center has stated. This is the highest level since 2018, when exports reached values of US$12.5 million. The UAE overtook Mongolia, the previous leader in egg imports from Russia.
Last year, dried eggs worth US$658,000, as well as dried egg albumin worth US$41,000, were exported to the UAE. Albumin was supplied from Russia to the UAE for the first time. Dried egg products are used in recipes such as baking, and albumin is used in products such as milkshakes and thickening agents.
