Statistics Denmark

Statistics Denmark (Danish: Danmarks Statistik) is a Danish governmental organization under the Ministry of the Interior and Housing, reporting to the Minister of Economic and Internal Affairs. The organization is responsible for creating statistics on the Danish society, including employment statistics, trade balance, and demographics.

Statistics Denmark relies heavily on public registers for statistical production, with a particular emphasis on the Central Person Register for population statistics.

Statistics Denmark's electronic data bank (Statbank.dk) is available freely in Danish or English to any user. It contains nearly all in-house produced statistics, which can be presented as cross-tables, diagrams, or maps, and can be exported to other programs for further analysis. When new general statistics are published in News from Statistics Denmark, the same data is simultaneously released in a more detailed format through the data bank.
