Information note on the revision of the DAC List

 

The DAC List is reviewed every three years. Countries are divided into income groups based on Gross National Income (GNI) per capita as reported by the World Bank, with the Least Developed Countries (LDCs), as defined by the United Nations, separately identified. Countries that have exceeded the high-income threshold for three consecutive years at the time of the review are removed from the List.

In line with this review process, the Development Assistance Committee approved in September 2008 the List of Recipients of Official Development Assistance (ODA). A further update of the List took place in August 2009 to accommodate changes in the listing for Kosovo and the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia.

The DAC List approved in September 2008 is valid for reporting in 2009 on 2008 flows. The DAC List approved in August 2009 will apply in 2010 and 2011 for reporting on 2009 and 2010 flows respectively.

The next review of the DAC List will take place in 2011.
