Yearly data from 1960 to 2025, from the World Bank.
Sudan's GDP (current US$) was US$60.16 billion in 2025, the latest year in the World Bank's World Development Indicators. That is up 16.31% from US$51.73 billion in 2015 (1.52% a year on average, compounded).
| Value | Year | |
|---|---|---|
| Latest | US$60.16 billion | 2025 |
| Five years earlier | US$27.03 billion | 2020 |
| Ten years earlier | US$51.73 billion | 2015 |
| Highest | US$64.83 billion | 2008 |
| Lowest | US$1.13 billion | 1960 |
| Average since 2016 | US$41.13 billion | 2016–2025 |
| First recorded | US$1.13 billion | 1960 |
Over five years it is up 122.54% from US$27.03 billion in 2020 (17.35% a year on average, compounded). Since 1960 it is up 5,241% from US$1.13 billion in 1960 (6.31% a year on average, compounded).
In 2025, Sudan's GDP (current US$) rose 21.1% on 2024 (from US$49.67 billion to US$60.16 billion).
Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1995 to 2024), the average change was +6.9% and a typical year strayed about 21.5% from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.7 standard deviations above 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 57.1% in 1990 and the biggest yearly fall was 84.1% in 1992. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2016 to 2025 the straight-line trend is upward, about US$1.94 billion a year. A straight line explains 33% of the movement over 10 observed years.
Worked out from the yearly values above. How the checks work: standard deviation, z-scores and straight-line trends.
In 2025, Sudan had the 90th highest value of the 186 economies reporting that year. Higher is not always better: for some indicators the lowest value is the one to aim for. See the full ranking.

Gross domestic product is the total income earned through the production of goods and services in an economic territory during an accounting period. It can be measured in three different ways: using either the expenditure approach, the income approach, or the production approach. This indicator is expressed in current prices, meaning no adjustment has been made to account for price changes over time. This indicator is expressed in United States dollars.
Limitations: Gross domestic product (GDP), though widely tracked, may not always be the most relevant summary of aggregated economic performance for all economies, especially when production occurs at the expense of consuming capital stock. While GDP estimates based on the production approach are generally more reliable than estimates compiled from the income or expenditure side, different countries use different definitions, methods, and reporting standards. World Bank staff review the quality of national accounts data and sometimes make adjustments to improve consistency with international guidelines. Nevertheless, significant discrepancies remain between international standards and actual practice.
Regional and income-group figures are computed by the World Bank as a gap-filled total.
