Last Updated: 30 July 2024

Information about the basis of these statistics is available from the Vital Events – General Background Information and the Deaths – Background Information pages.

This page contains datasets in Excel format. This data will be particularly useful for users who would like the same data for a series of different years rather than just for one year.

Note 1: Tables are mainly offered for the purposes of extracting figures. Due to the size of some of the files they are not recommended for printing.

Note 2: If you experience difficulty downloading the files. Please contact our Statistics Customer Services at the e-mail address below and request a disk with the full file.
