Analysis# Trinidad and Tobago GDP per Capita (PPP)
Trinidad and Tobago's GDP per capita (PPP) reached 36,813.887 international dollars in 2026, matching its all-time peak. The figure represents a remarkable 513.7% increase since 1980, when the nation recorded just 5,891.576 international dollars. This dramatic expansion reflects decades of economic development, though the country has experienced significant volatility along the way.
