CBS is in transition towards a new classification of the population by origin. Greater emphasis is now placed on where a person was born, aside from where that person’s parents were born. The term ‘migration background’ is no longer used in this regard. The main categories western/non-western are being replaced by categories based on continents and a few countries that share a specific migration history with the Netherlands. The new classification is being implemented gradually in tables and publications on population by origin.

Data available from: 1950
Most of the data is available as of 1950 with the exception of the live born children by country of birth of the mother and origin country of the mother (from 2021, previous periods will be added at a later time), stillborn children by duration of pregnancy (24+) (from 1991), average number of children per male (from 1996) and the average age of the father at childbirth (from 1996).

Status of the figures:
All data recorded in this publication are final data.

Changes per 23 November 2023:
None, this is a new table.
This table replaces table 'Birth; key figures, 1950-2022' which has been discontinued. A link to this table is included in section 3.
The following changes have been made:
The topics relating to live born children by migration background of the mother have been replaced by live born children by country of birth (Netherlands, outside the Netherlands) and country of origin of the mother.

When will new figures be published?
In the third quarter of 2024 final figures of 2023 will be published in this publication.

CBS正在向基于出身的新的人口分类体系过渡。目前更加重视个人出生地，而不再仅仅关注其父母的出生地。‘移民背景’这一术语在此不再使用。主要类别‘西方/非西方’正被基于大洲和与荷兰具有特定移民历史的几个国家的类别所取代。新的分类体系正逐步应用于人口出身的相关表格和出版物中。

数据可追溯至：1950年
大部分数据可追溯至1950年，但母亲出生国及母亲原籍国的活产婴儿（自2021年起，之前的时期将随后补充），孕期持续24+的死产婴儿（自1991年起），每位男性的平均子女数（自1996年起）以及父亲平均生育年龄（自1996年起）除外。

数据统计状态：
本出版物中记录的所有数据均为最终数据。

2023年11月23日的变化：
无，此为新的表格。
本表格取代了已停用的表格‘出生；关键数据，1950-2022’，链接包含在第3节。
以下为所做的变更：
与母亲移民背景相关的生活婴儿主题已被母亲出生国（荷兰，荷兰以外）及母亲原籍国的活产婴儿所取代。

何时发布新数据？
2024年第三季度将发布2023年的最终数据。
