UNU-WIDER : GRD – Government Revenue Dataset (original) (raw)

The most recent version of the Government Revenue Dataset - updated in September 2023 - is open and free to use.

The GRD aims to present a complete picture of government revenue and tax trends over time and allows for analysis at the country, regional or cross-country level. Where possible, figures are expressed both inclusive and exclusive of natural resource revenues, which helps to overcome a major obstacle to cross-country comparisons in existing data sources.
