Serbia's GDP per capita in purchasing power parity (PPP) has shown a significant upward trend over the past three decades. Since the trough of 5,022.16 in 1995, the country has experienced steady growth, with the latest value standing at 32,741.87 in 2025. This represents a notable increase of over 550% since the post-Yugoslav economic turmoil. Serbia's GDP per capita surpassed that of Costa Rica, its closest peer country, in 2024, when it reached an all-time peak of 32,832.18. The country's economic progress has been driven by various factors, including investments in infrastructure, trade liberalization, and a growing services sector. However, Serbia still lags behind its regional peers, such as Belarus, which holds the 64th position globally with a GDP per capita of 34,069.08. To sustain its growth momentum, Serbia will need to address structural challenges, including a high unemployment rate among youth and a reliance on a few key industries.
