Myanmar GNI per Capita
GNI divided by midyear population NY.GNP.PCAP.CD
Myanmar's gni per capita was $1,182 in 2025, ranked 178th globally. This represents a 2.3% decrease from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 1962–2025.
Overview
Myanmar's gni per capita stood at $1,182 in 2025, a decline of +$28 from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach $1,182 by 2025. Myanmar ranked 178th globally.
Myanmar’s gross national income per capita has risen from a mere 30.00 in 1962 to 1,182.00 in 2025, placing the country 178th in the world after 64 years of data coverage. The indicator reached its all‑time high of 1,380.00 in 2019, a level that still exceeds the current figure by nearly 200 dollars, while the deepest dip occurred in 1967 when GNI per capita fell to 10.00. Compared with peers of similar rank, Myanmar trails Tanzania’s 1,283.00 and leads Lesotho’s 1,236.00, reflecting modest progress relative to regional counterparts such as Rwanda (1,128.00) and Togo (1,148.00). The post‑2019 decline suggests vulnerability to external shocks and domestic constraints, yet the long‑term upward trajectory remains evident. Continued reforms, investment in human capital and stable macro‑economic policies could help reverse the recent slide and sustain higher per‑capita income growth in the coming years.
