About Algeria's National Debt
Algeria carries low debt but finances itself almost entirely from oil and gas, leaving the budget heavily exposed to energy prices and drawing on reserves in lean years.
Algeria's debt-to-GDP ratio of 57% sits broadly within the range the IMF considers sustainable for an economy with sound institutions. By total government debt, Algeria ranks 69th of the 138 governments tracked here.
Algeria carries no net new borrowing at this rate, reflecting a budget surplus or a debt-reduction programme. Each of Algeria's 45 million citizens carries an individual share of approximately $895. That is below the world average of roughly $12,600 in government debt per person.
Figures are computed by Global Debt Clock using linear extrapolation from IMF general government gross debt baselines (Fiscal Monitor / WEO April 2026) and national treasury data. Actual debt changes through discrete bond issuances — these counters illustrate the approximate scale and pace of sovereign borrowing.
