Singapore: $3.24 (£2.50)©ruelleruelle/Alamy
Singapore imports the bulk of its eggs, which is reflected in retail prices. While not excessive, they are much higher than in neighbouring Malaysia and Indonesia.
The city-state has long been reliant on Malaysia for the lion's share of its egg supply. But with Malaysia suffering shortages, Singapore has had to diversify its egg imports, expanding its supply network to include a much wider range of countries. The tiny nation now imports eggs from as far afield as Türkiye, Poland and Spain.

Malaysia: $1.93 (£1.49)©IZWAN IS/Shutterstock
Malaysia has been grappling with an egg shortage since 2022, caused in part by Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which pushed up feed prices and hammered producers in the nation. As costs for the consumer increased, the Malaysian government introduced price controls, but these further compounded the shortage. The country has had to resort to importing eggs from India, according to newspaper The Straits Times.
To bolster food security, the controls were lifted late last year, and prices have risen as a result. They remain low by international standards, with a dozen regular eggs averaging $1.93 (£1.49) in the country.
