Myanmar Services Value Added
Services value added as % of GDP NV.SRV.TOTL.ZS
Myanmar's services value added was 40.80% in 2025, ranked 179th globally. This represents a 1.3% decrease from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 2008–2025.
Overview
Myanmar's services value added stood at 40.80% in 2025, a decline of +0.55% from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 40.80% by 2025. Myanmar ranked 179th globally.
Myanmar’s services value added rose from 37.06 in 2008 to a peak of 41.35 in 2024 before slipping slightly to 40.80 in 2025, placing the country 179th in the World Bank’s global ranking. The all‑time trough of 36.21 in 2011 marked the lowest point of the 18‑year series, after which a gradual recovery set in, driven by modest expansion in tourism, telecommunications and financial services. By 2025 Myanmar’s figure of 40.80 sits just below peers such as Oman (41.00) and Mozambique (41.20), indicating a competitive but still limited services sector relative to similarly ranked economies. The modest decline from the 2024 peak suggests that structural constraints, including limited private‑sector investment and persistent regulatory bottlenecks, continue to temper growth. If reforms that improve market access and digital infrastructure are implemented, the upward trajectory could resume, potentially pushing Myanmar’s services value added above its recent peak.
