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 2023 are final, the figures of 2024 are provisional.

Changes as of July 3rd 2025:
The provisional figures for 2024 have been added.

When will new figures be published?
The aim is to publish the final figures of 2024 in the fourth quarter of 2025.
