The criminal statistics include statistics on criminal cases as reported criminal offences, victims of reported criminal offences, imprisonments and convictions., The statistics shed light on new criminality among people who have been released after serving in jail or have received a guilty decision during a year. The extent and type of new crimes committed during a follow-up period of two years are calculated. , Furthermore, information on level of education and the extent of criminality the five years previous to the actual year form part of the statistics., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The source to the statistics are data from other statistical registers operated by Statistics Denmark. Data from the registers are delivered yearly via System-to-system-transmission. Data are already validated. However, central variables go through a probability check in form of a comparison with data from the previous year. Data about decisions, charges and admissions to prisons from Statistics Denmark's criminal statistical registers are linked to data from Statistics Denmark's register of the population's highest level of education and Statistics Denmark's register of Populations Statistics., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, Statistikken bliver anvendt bredt af myndigheder, organisationer, forskere, pressen mv.

However, the number of emigrants is assessed to be under-estimated with 15-20 percentages. The statistics include persons who are registered with a decision in the central criminal register at the time the extract to Statistics Denmark is done. A number of decisions made during the calendar year will happen not to be registered at that time. That implies that the total number of persons in the defined population presumably is under-estimated., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The statistics are published approximately 1 year and 9 months after the end of the reference period.

The main components are the import and export of goods and services, the surplus (or deficit) of the current account and the net worth (or net debt) respect to the rest of the world. The balance of payments statistics is compiled in cooperation with Danmarks Nationalbank , Statistical presentation, The balance of payments records the value of the economic transactions on a monthly basis between the Danish balance of payments area and the rest of the world. There are three main accounts: the current account (trade in goods and services, primary and secondary income), the capital account (capital transfers and acquisition/disposal of non-produced, nonfinancial assets between residents and non-residents) and the financial account (transactions that involve financial assets and liabilities between residents and non-residents). The statistics show the geographical distribution (counterpart countries). Danmarks Nationalbank compiles the financial account and the investment income of the Danish balance of payments., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The statistics are primarily compiled based on other statistics. The data sources are used directly and as a basis for calculations of developments. Validation of the sources mainly occurs during the preparation of other statistics, but special validations are carried out across selected sources to ensure consistency between the sources. The validation particularly targets businesses' international organisation of production. The data sources are processed so that monthly balance of payments statistics can be produced, even if some sources are compiled quarterly or annually. , Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The publication of the balance of payments, particularly the monthly dissemination, often attracts significant public interest.

The compilation of the statistics follows the IMF's manual BPM6. There is thus comparability with other countries following the same manual and back to 2005. For the detailed items, there is no comparability with the series before 2005. The statistics on International Trade in Services are directly included in the compilation of the balance of payments. For International Trade in Goods, there are methodological differences, so there is a discrepancy between the two statistics. The statistics is part of the national accounts and is directly included as the rest of the world sector in the sector account of the national accounts., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, The latest figures are published in a monthly news article "Nyt from Statistics Denmark," and all figures can be found in the Statistics Bank.

Value and volume indices are produced. The statistics are based on survey data from all large retail trade enterprises and a sample of the remaining retail trade enterprises, which are requested to submit information about their turnover each month. Seasonal adjustment is performed of the industries and the total., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The survey is based on a sample of Danish retail trade enterprises. The sample includes approximately 2,200 enterprises, and at the time of the first publication, the figures for a month are based on responses from approximately 1.800 of these enterprises for the initial publication. , The sample consist of 33 subgroups and enterprises are sampled based on their share of the yearly turnover for the given subgroup. The companies are ranked from largest to smallest and the companies, whose rank constitutes the bottom 10 pct. of turnover for their subgroup when summed, are never selected to participate. The companies whose rank lies between 11 and 49 pct. of the subgroup’s yearly summed turnover, are randomly selected. Lastly, the larger firms whose turnover altogether lies in the top 50 pct. of the yearly turnover for their subgroup are always included in the sample. The companies are selected based on VAT-declarations to the Danish tax administration. , Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, Many users who monitor the current business trends take an interest in the published statistics of retail trade. The demand for the statistics is broadly based in trade associations, the bank and finance sector, politicians, public and private institutions, researchers, enterprises, news media and Eurostat. The statistics provide input to the quarterly national accounts statistics and to Eurostat's pan-European statistics. The users view the retail trade index as an important short term indicator, and it often gets a lot of attention in the media and amongst other professional users. , Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The overall uncertainty of the total retail trade index is estimated to be less than 1 per cent. The accuracy of the monthly growth rate is generally very high. For the total index, the uncertainty is estimated to be maximum 0.2 percentage points, while it can be a little higher on commodity group level., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, Indices on the main industry groups are published already 22-28 days after the end of the month. This is rather quick for statistics based on a survey such as this. One month later the indices on the most detailed industry level are published. The punctuality is very high with delays happening very rarely. , Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, These statistics have been compiled since 1940, but they are not suited for long term time series analysis because of structural changes in the retail trade sector. The sample design and the calculation methods have been adjusted several times, last time in January 2026, where the time series back to 2015 where recalculated using new methods. , Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, These statistics are published in a Danish press release and in the StatBank under , Retail Trade Index, .

The index of net retail prices has been calculated since 1980, but there are estimated figures for the development in net prices back to February 1975. The weights were last adjusted in connection with calculating the index for January 2014 and are based on private consumption expenditure in 2012., Statistical presentation, The index of net retail prices shows the development of prices, minus indirect taxes plus subsidies, for goods and services bought by private households in Denmark. Thus, the index also covers foreign households' consumption expenditure in Denmark, but not Danish households' consumption expenditure abroad. The index shows the monthly changes in the costs (minus indirect taxes plus general subsidies) of buying a fixed basket of goods, the composition of which is made up in accordance with the households' consumption of goods and services., The index of net retail prices can best be characterized as a fixed weight index of a Laspeyres-type. The prices that are included in the index of net retail prices are not the prices paid by the consumers, but the purchase prices after deduction of indirect taxes and addition of subsidies (to the extent possible). The only exception to this is rent payments where the total rent, i.e. the share of rent payments, is included. The weights are calculated on the basis of data from the national accounts on final consumption expenditure of households in Denmark, distributed among 70 commodity groups. For each of these, a further division is made by using the detailed information on consumption expenditure from the Household Budget Survey., The price indices for April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December 2020 and January, February, March, April, May and June 2021 are more uncertain than usual, as the non-response rate has been significantly larger than normal and some businesses have been shut down due to COVID-19. , Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The index of net retail prices is calculated on the basis of 23,000 prices collected from approx. 1,600 shops, companies and institutions throughout Denmark. Most prices are by far collected monthly. The data material received is examined for errors, both by computer (using the so called HB-method) and manually. The different goods and services, which are included in the index of net retail prices, are first grouped according to approx. 500 elementary aggregates for which elementary aggregate indices are calculated. The elementary aggregate indices are weighted together into sub-indices that are in turn aggregated into the total index of net retail prices. In calculating a price index it is assumed that the baskets of goods that are compared are identical, also with respect to the quality of the goods. Mainly indirect quality adjustment methods are being applied in the index of net retail prices in connection with changes in the sample. The index of net retail prices is not seasonally adjusted., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The index of net retail prices is generally viewed as a reliable statistic based on the views of users., Important users are among others the Ministry of Finance, The Ministry of Economic Affairs and the Interior, The Danish Central Bank and private banks and other financial organizations., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, No calculation has been made of the uncertainty connected with sampling in the index of net retail prices as the sample is not randomly drawn, but the quality of the index of net retail prices is accessed to be high. In connection with COVID-19, uncertainty is greater than usual as it has been difficult to collect prices and many industries have been closed down., In addition to the "general" uncertainty connected with sampling, there are a number of sources of potential bias in the net price index. One source is the consumers substitution between goods and shops and another source is changes in the sample., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The index of net retail prices is published on the 10th or the first working day thereafter, following the month in which the data was collected. , The statistics are published without delay in relation to the scheduled date., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The index of net retail prices is related to the European Union harmonized index of consumer prices (HICP)., The European Union harmonized index of consumer prices (HICP) is based on actual consumer prices, whereas the index of net retail prices is based on the purchase prices after deduction of indirect taxes and VAT and addition of subsidies (to the extent possible)., From January 2001, the only difference between the national index of net retail prices and the HICP is apart from the price concept the coverage of goods and services, as owner-occupied dwellings is only recorded in the index of net retail prices and not in the HICP. , The index of net retail prices is also related to the consumer price index. The two indices comprise the same groups of goods and services and are calculated according to the same methodology. Consequently, the only difference between the two indices is the price concept used, as indirect taxes and VAT are subtracted in the index of net retail prices, and the weighting., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, These statistics are published monthly in a Danish press release and in the StatBank under , Net Price Index, ., Read more about accessibility and clarity

The statistics been complied since 1994, but is in its current form comparable from 2007 and onwards. , Statistical presentation, The statistics provide an overview of the number of members of employee organisations with attachment to the labour market i.e. excl. trainees, retirees, early retirees and self-employed. The statistics are grouped by central organisations, individual organisations and gender. The statistics are published annually and disseminated in the newsletter Nyt fra Danmarks Statistik and in the StatBank., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, These statistics are based on annual reports from employees' organisations on the number of members attached to the labour market per December 31. Data are typically validated by comparing the current year’s reporting with that of previous years for each organisation. As of the reference date 31 December 2023, total membership figures are also reported for each organisation. These totals are then compared with the reported number of members with labour market affiliation per organisation to ensure consistency., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, Users of the statistics are typically employee and employer organisations, researchers and the media. No dissatisfaction has been expressed with the statistics., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The statistics are based on reports from Central Employee Organisations and other employee organisations. Not all employee unions are able to calculate the precise figures exclusive members not attached to the labor market, i.e.. students, early retirees and pensioners, and self-employed. The data are therefore believed to be a little overestimated for some organisations. On the other hand, there may be small employee organisations that are not included. The data are normally not revised, but if errors are detected they are corrected back in time as far as possible.

Minor breaks in the time series may occur when employee organisations change their reporting methods. For example, the previously observed sharp decline in membership figures for some organisations (mainly those under LO) from 2011 to 2012 was due to the inclusion of members without labour market affiliation in earlier reporting. However, this decline has been addressed as of the publication on 19 May 2025, by revising the reported figures downwards for the period 2007–2011., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, The statistics is published yearly in a Danish press release (Nyt fra Danmarks Statistik) at the same time as the tables are updated in the StatBank.
