Eswatini GNI per Capita
GNI divided by midyear population NY.GNP.PCAP.CD
Eswatini's gni per capita was $3,743 in 2025, ranked 143rd globally. This represents a 4.3% increase from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 1972–2025.
Overview
Eswatini's gni per capita stood at $3,743 in 2025, a rise of +$153 from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach $3,743 by 2025. Eswatini ranked 143rd globally.
Eswatini’s gross national income per capita has risen from a trough of 290.00 in 1972 to a latest 2025 level of 3,743.00, placing the kingdom at rank 143 globally. The all‑time peak of 4,120.00 was recorded in 2013, after which the figure slipped modestly, reflecting the combined impact of slower export growth and fiscal pressures from the HIV/AIDS epidemic that has strained public finances. Over the 39‑year coverage period the average annual increase has been modest compared with peers such as Djibouti, whose GNI per capita stands at 3,913.00, and Bhutan at 3,920.00, indicating that Eswatini’s growth has lagged behind other lower‑middle‑income economies in the region. Structural reforms in agriculture, diversification of the manufacturing base, and improved health outcomes could reverse the recent stagnation and set a higher trajectory for future GNI per capita growth.
