Dataset is not available.
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:
All figures are final.
Changes as of February 14th 2024:
A correction has been implemented concerning the average population for the years 2015 and 2016, there was a shift in all age categories.
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.

Description topics
- Average population
- The average population in agegroup L for year t is calculated as follows:
((Population in agegroup (L) on January 1st year t)+
(Population in agegroup (L) on January 1st year t+1))/2.
The calculation of the average of children at the age of zero years differs from this definition and has been calculated as follows:
((live births in year t)+(children aged zero years on 1 January of year t+1))/2.
