In 2025, Luxembourg was the country with the highest gross domestic product per capita in the world. Of the 20 listed countries, 13 are in Europe and five are in Asia, alongside the U.S. and Australia. There are no African or Latin American countries among the top 20. Correlation with high living standards While GDP is a useful indicator for measuring the size or strength of an economy, GDP per capita is much more reflective of living standards. For example, when compared to life expectancy or indices such as the Human Development Index or the World Happiness Report, there is a strong overlap - 14 of the 20 countries on this list are also ranked among the 20 happiest countries in 2024, and all 20 have "very high" HDIs. Misleading metrics? GDP per capita figures, however, can be misleading, and to paint a fuller picture of a country's living standards then one must look at multiple metrics. GDP per capita figures can be skewed by inequalities in wealth distribution, and in countries such as those in the Middle East, a relatively large share of the population lives in poverty while a smaller number live affluent lifestyles.

This table presents Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita (or per person) according to the expenditure approach. Data is presented in US dollars. In the expenditure approach, GDP is made up of final consumption expenditure of households and non-profit institutions serving households plus final consumption expenditure of General Government plus gross fixed capital formation (or investment) plus net trade (exports minus imports).

The table shows OECD countries and some other economies, as well as the OECD total, G20, G7, OECD Europe, United States - Mexico - Canada Agreement (USMCA), European Union and euro area.

This table shows Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita (or per person), household final consumption expenditure per capita and actual individual consumption per capita. Final consumption expenditure is the expenditure of resident households on consumption goods or services, while individual consumption is the sum of household consumption plus the individual (not collective) consumption of the non-profit institutions serving households (NPISH) and General Government sectors. The indicators are in volume terms and are converted to US dollars using constant Purchasing Power Parities (PPPs).

When using the filters, please note that GDP is selected by default in the ‘Transaction’ filter but you can select the consumption measures using the ‘Transaction’ filter. The ‘Institutional sector’ filter shows that GDP and actual individual consumption relate to the total economy, while household final consumption expenditure relates to households.

The table shows OECD countries and selected economies, as well as the OECD total, OECD Europe, European Union and euro area . These can be selected using the ‘Reference area’ filter.

These indicators were presented in the previous dissemination system in the SNA_TABLE1 dataset.
