Description

This table includes key figures on mortality in the Dutch population broken down by gender. The figures include totals and ratios of deceased persons, infant mortality, mortality in babies younger than 4 weeks and perinatal mortality (after a gestation period of 24 weeks or more and after a gestation period of 28 weeks or more). The table also presents figures on life expectancy at birth and average age at death.

For additional information on Mortality the reader is referred to the Dutch tables.

Data available from: 1950

Status of the figures: All data recorded in this publication are final data. The 2023 figures on stillbirths and (multiple) births are provisional, the other figures in the table are final.

Changes as of 9 December 2024: The provisional figures on the number of live births and stillbirths do not include children who were born at a gestational age that is unknown. These cases were included in the final figures for previous years. However, the 2023 data shows a larger number of children born at an unknown gestational age than in previous years. Based on an internal analysis for 2022, it appears that in the majority of cases involving an unknown gestational age, the child was born at less than 24 weeks. To ensure that the provisional 2023 figures do not overestimate the number of stillborn children born at a gestational age of over 24 weeks, children born at an unknown gestational age have now been excluded.

When will new figures be published? Final 2023 figures on the number of stillbirths and the number of births are expected to be added to the table in de third quarter of 2025. In the third quarter of 2025 final figures of 2024 will be published in this publication.
