Timor-Leste graduation status

Timor-Leste met the graduation criteria in 2015, 2018 and 2021.  The Committee for Development Policy (CDP) deferred its decision on a recommendation to 2024. In 2024, Timor-Leste no longer met the graduation criteria.

See the CDP's 2024 report .

Next step: when Timor-Leste meets the graduation criteria again, its graduation process will re-start (it will be considered in the same way as a country meeting the criteria for the first time).
