How to read this figure

GDP per capita measures economic output per person, not personal wealth or living standards. It can be substantially inflated where a large share of output is generated by multinational corporations or by cross-border workers who are not counted in the resident population. Ireland's figure, for example, is raised by multinational profit-shifting — its own statistics office reports a modified measure (GNI*) for this reason — and Luxembourg's by commuters who contribute to GDP but live abroad. For comparing living standards, GDP per capita at purchasing power parity (PPP) is more reliable.

Analysis# Comoros GDP per Capita Comoros's GDP per capita reached 1,904.282 USD in 2026, marking its all-time peak. The nation has recovered substantially from its lowest point of 510.964 USD in 1985, representing total growth of 163.6% over the past four decades. Despite this considerable improvement, the country remains among the world's lower-income economies, reflecting persistent development challenges across the Indian Ocean archipelago. Recent years have delivered accelerating momentum. Between 2017 and 2023, GDP per capita fluctuated between 1,414 and 1,550 USD, but 2024 initiated a sharp upward trajectory, with gains of 94.4 USD followed by 152.7 USD in 2025 and another 131.2 USD in 2026. This sustained climb suggests strengthening economic conditions, though the volatile history warrants monitoring whether this upward trend reflects structural improvements or temporary gains.
