Overview
Syrian Arab Republic's gni per capita stood at $561 in 2025, a decline of +$149 from 2022. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach $561 by 2025. Syrian Arab Republic ranked 196th globally.
Syrian Arab Republic’s gross national income per capita has risen modestly from an early‑record low of 210.00 in 1963 to a still‑low 561.00 in 2025, placing the country 196th in the world and just above Mozambique (569.00) and below Madagascar (536.00). The sharpest expansion occurred in the decade preceding the 2011 peak of 2,600.00, a level that far exceeded the long‑term average and reflected a brief period of higher oil revenues and limited conflict. Since that apex, civil war and sanctions have driven GNI per capita down by more than three‑quarters, eroding the gains of the 2000s and leaving the economy near its 62‑year historical trough of 230.00 recorded in 1962. The current trajectory remains constrained by ongoing instability, limited access to international finance, and a fragile private sector. A durable peace settlement, coupled with reconstruction aid and diversification away from oil, would be required to reverse the downward trend and move the indicator toward pre‑2011 levels.
