Overview

Honduras’ government revenue as a share of GDP stood at 24.26 percent in 2025, placing it 111th in the world and slightly below peers such as Saudi Arabia (24.22 percent) and Chile (24.72 percent). The indicator has risen steadily since the early 1990s, when it was recorded at 17.23 percent, and reached its all‑time high of 26.98 percent in 2016, a peak that reflected expanded tax administration and higher commodity‑related inflows. The lowest point occurred in 1995 at 16.97 percent, amid fiscal consolidation and limited fiscal capacity. Over the 36‑year series, the upward trajectory suggests a maturing fiscal framework, though the post‑peak decline indicates vulnerability to external shocks and domestic revenue volatility. Continued diversification of the tax base and improved collection efficiency will be crucial to sustaining the recent gains and preventing a reversal of the modest upward trend.
