Overview
Kosovo's services value added stood at 45.32% in 2025, a decline of +0.36% from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 45.32% by 2025. Kosovo ranked 159th globally.
Kosovo’s services value added has risen modestly since the earliest observation in 2008, when it stood at 44.96, to 45.32 in 2025, placing the country 159th in the global ranking. The indicator reached its all‑time peak of 47.64 in 2020, suggesting a brief acceleration before a slight retreat to the current level. Over the 18‑year coverage period the increase amounts to 0.36 percentage points, a rate that lags behind the modest growth recorded by peer economies such as Burkina Faso (45.75) and Haiti (45.32) but remains above the Democratic Republic of the Congo (45.28). The narrow gap with Haiti indicates that Kosovo’s service sector performance is converging with other lower‑income economies rather than approaching the higher‑value services of Norway (45.89). Continued structural reforms and deeper integration into regional markets could sustain the upward trajectory and narrow the gap with more advanced peers.
