General government revenue as % of GDP GGR_NGDP

Overview
Sudan's government revenue stood at 3.00% in 2025, a rise of +0.07% from 2024. The IMF projects 3.00% by 2025. Sudan ranked 186th globally.
Sudan's government revenue has experienced significant fluctuations over the past three decades, with the indicator ranking 186th globally in 2025. At its peak in 1992, government revenue reached 25.90, a stark contrast to the 2.93 recorded in 2024, the lowest point in the country's history. Since 1990, government revenue has declined by approximately 80%, from 14.76 to its current level of 3.00. This downward trend is comparable to that of neighboring countries, with Haiti ranking slightly higher at 5.71 in 2025. The substantial decline in government revenue has serious implications for Sudan's economic stability and ability to provide essential public services. A stabilization of oil prices, which have historically been a significant contributor to Sudan's government revenue, would be essential in reversing the current trend and potentially leading to a recovery in government revenue.
