Explanation of symbols

Table explanation


This table contains the number of deaths in the population of the Netherlands by underlying cause of death (short list), sex and age-group (at time of death).

Since 2013 Statistics Netherlands is using Iris software for automatic coding for cause of death. This improved the international comparison of the data. The change in coding did cause a considerable shift in the statistic. Since 2013 the (yearly) ICD-10 updates are applied.

Data available from: 1950

Status of the figures:
The figures for 2023 are provisional, all other figures are final.

Changes as of July 18th 2024:
The provisional figures for 2023 have been added.

Changes as of February 14th 2024:

Changes as of December 11th 2023:
- The final figures of 2022 have been added.
- Due to a change in the allocation of codes in group 17, external causes, there have been several shifts in the groups 17.1, 17.1.1, 17.1.1.2, 1.1.5 and 17.5 in the years 1996 to 2021. These are Sequelae of transport accidents, suicide and homicide.
- Furthermore a correction has been implemented concerning the years 1996 to 2002, which involved some shifts in the age categories, sex and cause of death. The changes concerned >5 persons per year.
