Hello! Is it possible to compare GDP of Vietnam and Cuba?

Absolutely! Here's a clear comparison of the GDP of Vietnam and Cuba, based on the most recent and reliable data:

Summary Comparison

  • In terms of total output, Vietnam’s economy ($476B) is about 4.4 times larger than Cuba’s ($107B).
  • Growth trends are strikingly different: Vietnam expanded by 7.1% in 2024, while Cuba’s economy contracted by nearly 2% in 2023 and continues to face decline Reuters+2Reuters+2.
  • Surprisingly, GDP per capita is higher in Cuba ($7.4K) than in Vietnam ($4.7K), reflecting Cuba’s smaller population and unique economic situation

Final Thoughts

Vietnam is experiencing strong economic growth and expanding its output significantly. Meanwhile, Cuba is struggling with economic contraction, energy crises, and ongoing sanctions that have eroded its economic performance.

Did you include remittances into Vietnam GDP?

Great question — let’s clarify:

Are remittances included in Vietnam’s GDP?

No, remittances are not directly included in GDP.
Instead, they are counted in the Gross National Income (GNI) and the Balance of Payments, particularly in the Current Account under secondary income.

Breakdown:

  • GDP (Gross Domestic Product) measures the total value of goods and services produced within a country's borders, regardless of who earns the income (locals or foreigners).
  • Remittances, on the other hand, are inflows of money from abroad, sent by Vietnamese workers living overseas to families back home. Since this income is earned abroad, it doesn't count toward domestic production — and thus, not included in GDP.

Vietnam’s Remittance Numbers

  • In 2023, Vietnam received ~$16 billion USD in remittances.
  • This ranked Vietnam in the top 10 remittance-receiving countries globally.
  • Remittances are equivalent to 3–4% of GDP, and in some regions (like Ho Chi Minh City), they exceed $7 billion alone.

Do you have any remittance-receiving of Vietnam in 2004?

Absolutely — I found solid data on Vietnam’s remittance inflows in 2004:

Remittances Received by Vietnam in 2004

According to IndexMundi (based on World Bank / IMF data), Vietnam received approximately $2.31 billion USD in personal remittances in 2004 Index Mundi.

Expressed as a percentage of GDP, that amounted to around 5.08% in the same year

Estimations from Historical Reports

A declassified diplomatic cable citing Vietnam’s central bank and IMF estimates adds important context (via Wikileaks):

  • Official (banking system) remittance inflows were around $3.0 billion in 2004 Wikileaks cable search..
  • The IMF estimated that actual remittance inflows—including informal channels—could have been as high as $6–7 billion USD in total Wikileaks cable search..

These figures reflect the reality that informal channels (like hawala-style transfers, cash couriers, etc.) likely carried a substantial—and difficult to measure—portion of remittances into Vietnam

Key Takeaways

  • Formally recorded remittances in 2004: $2.3 billion (~5.1% of GDP).
  • Official banking figure: roughly $3 billion.
  • IMF-estimated total inflows, when including unofficial channels: $6–7 billion—potentially double what's recorded via formal reporting.

If you're interested, I can walk you through how remittance inflows evolved in subsequent years, how they compare to GDP over time, or their broader economic impact—just let me know!
