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 up until 2024 are final.

Changes as of February 12th 2026:
The figures for 2024 have been made final.

When will new figures be published?
The aim is to publish the provisional figures of 2025 in the third quarter of 2026.
