About Haiti's National Debt
Haiti carries very low formal debt, but profound political collapse, gang violence and the erosion of state capacity overwhelm any conventional fiscal analysis.
Haiti's debt-to-GDP ratio of 12% is low by international standards: higher than 1% 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, Haiti ranks 133rd of the 135 governments tracked here.
At the current borrowing rate of $6 per second, Haiti adds about $518 thousand to its government debt every day — roughly $189 million per year. Each of Haiti's 13 million residents carries an individual share of approximately $324. That is below 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.
