About Cyprus' National Debt
Cyprus took a 2013 bailout notable for a controversial levy on bank deposits; its debt has since fallen sharply as the economy recovered and returned to growth.
Cyprus' debt-to-GDP ratio of 55% is moderate: higher than 50% of the 135 governments tracked here. No ratio is safe or dangerous on its own — whether a debt is sustainable depends on the interest rate on it, how fast the economy grows, the currency it is owed in and who holds it. By total government debt, Cyprus ranks 99th of the 135 governments tracked here.
At the current borrowing rate of $3 per second, Cyprus adds about $259 thousand to its government debt every day — roughly $95 million per year. Each of Cyprus' 1 million residents carries an individual share of approximately $22,848. That is above the world average of roughly $14,600 in government debt per person.
Figures are computed by Global Debt Clock by linear extrapolation from each country's baseline figure, named in the source line on this page (for most countries, the IMF World Economic Outlook, October 2026). Actual debt changes through discrete bond issuances — these counters illustrate the approximate scale and pace of sovereign borrowing.
