iShares International Treasury Bond ETF pays an annual distribution. Its most recent payment was $0.59 per share, with an [ex-date](/instructions/learning/ex-dividend-date) of December 19, 2025 and a pay date of December 24, 2025. Over the trailing twelve months, the fund paid $0.59 per share, a [yield](/instructions/learning/dividend-yield) of 1.47% at a share price of $39.89.

The record is short and irregular. The table lists six annual payments from 2019 to 2025, all with ex-dates in mid-to-late December, and no distribution is listed for 2020. The amounts have varied widely: $0.12 in 2019, $0.20 in 2021, $0.04 in both 2022 and 2023, $0.23 in 2024 and $0.59 in 2025. The 2025 payment was the largest in the table, about 2.6 times the 2024 amount. Payment followed the ex-date by five to seven days.

The fund shows a growth streak of two years based on calendar-year totals. Given the gap and the wide swings in the history, the amounts do not follow a steady trend. If the annual pattern holds, the next distribution would go ex-distribution in mid-December 2026 and be paid about a week later.
