Key figures

What the numbers say

In 2023, Liechtenstein's taxes less subsidies on products (current US$) fell 3.2% on 2022 (from US$280.78 million to US$271.79 million).

This year's change was 0.4 standard deviations below that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.

On record, the biggest yearly rise was 46.4% in 2021 and the biggest yearly fall was 21% in 2016. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.

From 2014 to 2023 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains 24% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.
