Guatemala GDP PPP (1980–2025)

Overview

Guatemala's gdp ppp stood at $281.7B in 2025, a rise of +$17.2B from 2024. The IMF projects $281.7B by 2025. Guatemala ranked 67th globally.

Guatemala’s gross domestic product measured at purchasing power parity has risen from a trough of 22,281,000,000.00 in 1980 to an all‑time peak of 281,690,000,000.00 in 2025, positioning the country at rank 67 globally. This expansion of roughly 1,165 percent over 46 years reflects sustained structural reforms, demographic growth and a gradual shift toward services and manufacturing, while the economy remains vulnerable to external shocks such as commodity price swings and climate‑related agricultural losses. In 2025 Guatemala’s PPP GDP of 281,690,000,000.00 is comparable to peer economies such as Tanzania (293,631,000,000.00) and Myanmar (273,200,000,000.00), illustrating a similar scale of development among middle‑income nations. The upward trajectory suggests that continued investment in human capital, diversification of export markets and improvements in institutional quality could sustain growth, whereas setbacks in fiscal stability or environmental resilience would likely temper the pace of expansion.
