France GDP per capita was US$48,985.73 in 2025 at current prices

France’s GDP per capita was US$48,985.73 in 2025, measured in current U.S. dollars. That is the latest non-empty observation in the World Bank series checked on October 5, 2026. The same year’s purchasing-power-adjusted figure was 63,975.35 current international dollars, according to the World Bank PPP data. These are different measures, not competing estimates of the same dollar amount.

For a spreadsheet or public data page, put the year and unit beside the number. A column headed only “GDP per capita” leaves readers unable to tell which measure they are comparing.

France GDP per capita, 2020–2025

The following table uses one consistent series: GDP per capita in current US$, World Bank indicator NY.GDP.PCAP.CD.

Source: World Bank API, France, 2020–2025. Values are rounded to two decimal places for display. The response reports a database update date of July 13, 2026; that is separate from the observation year and the date checked.

GDP per capita divides GDP by the population. It is an economy-wide average—not the average salary, median household income, or an amount each resident receives. The World Bank defines this series as GDP per person at current prices, without adjustment for price changes over time. See its indicator definition.

Choose the measure before building the comparison

PPP means purchasing power parity. It accounts for differences in price levels across countries, making it more appropriate than exchange-rate-based comparisons for comparing output and average material well-being. But current PPP dollars still do not remove price changes over time. For a real-growth trend, use a constant-price series rather than interpreting the nominal table above as inflation-adjusted growth. Sources: PPP definition and constant-price definition.

If you add Germany, Italy, Spain or the UK, use the same indicator and a common year for every country. Do not sort a mixture of nominal and PPP observations into one ranking. For broader comparisons, the distinction between wealth and GDP rankings also matters.

Prepare the spreadsheet for publication

Use one row per country, year and indicator. A compact schema is:

country, iso3, year, indicator_code, value, unit, source_url, source_updated, retrieved_on

For the latest nominal France observation, enter France, FRA, 2025, NY.GDP.PCAP.CD, and the numeric value 48985.7307807924. Record current US$ separately, with 2026-07-13 as the database update date and 2026-10-05 as the retrieval date. Use the linked World Bank API URL in source_url.

Before publishing:

• Keep values numeric. Store 48985.7307807924, not $48,985.73; apply display rounding separately.
• Preserve missing observations. Leave them blank and explain the convention—do not substitute zero.
• Keep the source snapshot. Retain the original download so you can document what your table used if the source is revised.
• Label the chart precisely. Use “France GDP per capita, current US$, 2020–2025,” not “French living standards.”

TablePage accepts CSV, TSV, XLSX and XLS files and publishes them as public dataset pages. Prepare a reviewed file containing only the public data and provenance fields. After publishing, check that years and values behave as numbers and that readers can find the unit, source and retrieval date. If you expand it into a country ranking, add the disclosures a public ranking table needs, especially coverage, missing values and release dates.
