About Sudan's National Debt
Sudan carries one of the world's highest debt-to-GDP ratios, compounded by conflict, hyperinflation and arrears to international creditors. Debt-relief efforts have repeatedly stalled amid political instability.
Sudan's debt-to-GDP ratio of 188% is in the critical range, well above IMF concern thresholds, where debt-service costs consume a large share of revenue and crowd out public services and investment. By total government debt, Sudan ranks 66th of the 137 governments tracked here.
At the current borrowing rate of $34 per second, Sudan adds about $0.0 billion to its national debt every day — roughly $1 billion per year. Each of Sudan's 47 million citizens carries an individual share of approximately $1,601. 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.
