Overview
Azerbaijan's services value added stood at 39.44% in 2025, a decline of +2.88% from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 39.44% by 2025. Azerbaijan ranked 184th globally.
Azerbaijan’s services sector contributed 39.44 percent of gross domestic product in 2025, placing the country 184th in the World Bank’s global ranking and matching the share recorded by the Republic of Congo. The share has risen steadily from 34.75 percent in 1990, reaching an all‑time high of 43.34 percent in 1998 before falling sharply to a trough of 21.76 percent in 2007, a decline that reflected the global financial crisis and domestic oil‑price volatility. Since the trough, the services share has recovered, driven by expansion in telecommunications, tourism and financial services, and has remained above the 30 percent threshold for the past decade. Compared with peers such as Afghanistan (39.04 percent) and Iraq (38.89 percent), Azerbaijan’s services contribution is modestly higher, suggesting a relatively diversified non‑oil economy. Continued investment in digital infrastructure and liberalisation of the service market could sustain the upward trajectory and further narrow the gap with higher‑ranking economies.
