The statistics create a basis for a number of analyses on demography and society and are used as a basis for planning tasks on a national, regional and municipal level. In their basic form, the statistics have been compiled since 1769 but have undergone a series of changes as society developed and legislation followed. Most of the present table series in Statbank Denmark comprise data from 2007 and forward, while a few of these go back further., Statistical presentation, The population statistics are usually a quarterly aggregation of the population living in Denmark broken down by e.g. sex, age, ancestry, marital status and municipality of residence. In connection with COVID-19, however, the number of deceased persons was aggregated on a weekly basis broken down by date of death, age bracket and province. The population statistics show the population in figures at the reference date in terms of persons, households and families. The statistics also show changes in the population, such as births, deaths and migrations etc., in the period between the two reference dates. Similarly, the statistics contain information about fertility, life expectancy and divorce rate. , Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Data for the statistics is collected on a daily basis from the Civil Registration System (CPR) by means of a system-to-system solution. The civil registration number and the updating of residence information and marital status information etc. is required for a vast number of public services, which serves as continuous validation of the content of the register. The number of immigrants, descendants, households, families, marriages and divorces is assessed on the basis of data from the Civil Registration System. It is also used to calculate e.g. fertility rates, life expectancy and divorce rates. In addition, data is applied from the Birth Register and the Cause of Death Register from the Danish Health Data Authority from which data is collected annually., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, These statistics are relevant for municipalities, regions, ministries, other government organisations and private companies in analyses of a number of conditions of society and as a basis for planning of e.g. schools, roads, facilities and services for the elderly etc. Statistics Denmark also uses the basic data and results of the statistics for a vast number of other assessments., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The statistics are based on the population registered in the Civil Registration System (CPR). Since correct registration in CPR is a condition for being able to lead a normal life in Denmark, the general quality and reliability of the register is regarded as very high. Failure to report immigrations and emigrations means that the published population is considered to be overestimated by 10,000 people or 0.14 per cent., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The statistics are usually published one and a half months after the end of the reference period. The statistics are released without delay according to the scheduled dates of publication. The weekly publication of the number of deaths is released five days after the reference week. , Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, Denmark bases its population statistics on an administrative register, which also applies for a few other countries, whereas many countries take censuses every five or ten years. The population figure for the period 1971 and onwards is based on the same source, i.e. the Civil Registration System (CPR). The population figure from before this period is based on censuses., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, The statistics are published in “Nyt fra Danmarks Statistik” (in Danish). Figures for the population and its movements are published in Statbank Denmark. In addition, the figures are included in the publications , Befolkningens udvikling, and , Indvandrere i Danmark, (both in Danish with summaries in English).

It is primarily used for assessments of economic developments in industry in Denmark., The statistics are part of the EU's common short-term statistics and date back to 1974, but in their current form are comparable from 1985 onwards for most industries., Statistical presentation, The statistics are a monthly statement of the production and turnover index for the industry. The statistics are divided into five groups defined on the basis of the use of goods and services (eg production of durable and non-durable consumer goods) and the main groups mining and quarrying (B), manufacturing (C) and energy supply (D) and 12 main industry groups under main group C, which follow the Danish industry nomenclature DB07. The turnover index is also calculated by dividing a domestic market turnover index and an export turnover index. All figures are published both adjusted for seasonal fluctuations and in actual figures., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Every month, information is collected on the value of turnover and stock from a sample of approx. 1,000 industrial companies in Denmark. For most, this is done using online questionnaires, but for about 20 per cent. of the companies, the information can instead be collected from statistical registers. The received data is debugged and production is calculated based on turnover and stock figures. Then the data is weighted so that a production and a turnover index can be calculated that represents the entire manufacturing industry in Denmark. The results are seasonally adjusted to eliminate normal seasonal fluctuations, Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The development of the production and turnover indices are primary used for manufacturing industry business cycle analyses and as input for the national accounts. Various users include industry organisations, public authorities and the news media. Form and content as well as comparisons with other statistics are continuously discussed at manufacturing industry user committee meetings., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, There is some sampling uncertainty as the statistics are based on a sample of companies. In addition, there are a number of assumptions in calculations, eg in connection with the valuation of inventories. In the first version of the numbers, there is a bit of a lapse., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The statistics are published between 35 and 40 days after the end of the month. The punctuality is high, with very few delays in relation to the scheduled release dates. , Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The current time series goes back to year 2000, and it has a high degree of comparability over time. The time series can for most industries be linked to data of previous years, resulting in a comparable time series going back to year 1985. The international comparability with similar statistics from other EU countries is very high., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, New figures are published in a monthly news article News from Statistics Denmark, and all figures can be found in , Statbank Denmark, ., The statistics also have a , subject page, ., Read more about accessibility and clarity
