"Overall, Vietnam's GDP per capita has shown the most impressive growth among all countries in the world. This trend reflects the dynamism of Vietnam's economy and its outstanding development in recent years," said a new article published in Forbes Magazine (USA). Vietnam's GDP per capita increased from 1,650.63 USD in 2006 to 3,373.08 USD in 2021

A new article published in Forbes reports that the world economy has gone through a challenging period since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic. But in the context of world disruption, many economies still record significant growth in GDP per capita from 2020 to 2021, including Vietnam.

According to the latest data from the World Bank, Vietnam's GDP per capita reached 3,694.02 USD (as of 2021). Vietnam is one of the few countries that has weathered the economic impact of the pandemic quite well. In 2019, before the pandemic, Vietnam's GDP per capita was 3,425.09 USD, increasing to 3,526.27 USD in 2020 and then increasing again to 3,694.02 USD. In fact, Vietnam's GDP per capita has increased dramatically since around 2005.

When looking at the annual GDP per capita growth rate, the World Bank calculates Vietnam's GDP per capita growth in constant local currency. Therefore, if we only calculate the annual growth rate of Vietnam's GDP per capita in dollar terms, the data will not match the annual growth rate provided by the World Bank.

Vietnam's economy sees an annual growth rate of 1.72% (using current dollar value, $3,694.02 in 2021 versus $3,526.27 in 2020, growth rate yearly growth rate is 4.76% ).

From 2019 to 2020, Vietnam's GDP per capita growth rate is 2.01%, slowing down from the 6.13% annual growth rate of 2018-2019, but still positive.
