| TCP0341 - Target 4 - Social - Life expectancy at birth |
| Definition |
Life expectancy at birth is the average number of years an infant would live, if he/she lived all his/her life under the conditions of mortality by age corresponding to the life table. |
| Periodicity |
Annual |
| Data sources |
Statistical survey on life expectancy |
| Methodology |
Life expectancy is computed based on the number of permanent resident population at January 1st and July 1st, the number of deaths and internal migration due to change of domicile.
The figures in the mortality table have the following meaning:
L(x) - number of survivors at a certain exact age (x) from a hypothetical generation of 100.000 live-births.
D(x) - number of deaths between exact age of (x) years and next age (x+1).
Q(x) - probability of death between exact age of (x) years and next age (x+1) years.
P(x) - probability of survival between exact age of (x) years and next age (x+1) years.
LM(x) - average number of survivors in age interval of (x) to (x+1) years.
E(x) - life expectancy at age (x) represents the average number of years that a person of a certain age (x) has to live, if that person would live all her life under the conditions of mortality by age during the reference period of the mortality table.
E(0) - life expectancy at birth is referred to as mean life expectancy.
E(0) - represents the average number of years a newborn might live in the conditions of the intensity of the mortality by age from the reference period of the mortality table.

| Observations |
Until 2011 the number of deaths included deceased that had their permanent residence in Romania.
Beginning with 2012 there are included deceased that had either their permanent residence or their usual residence in Romania.
Permanent resident population at July 1st in the reference year represents the number of persons with Romanian citizenship and permanent residence in territory of Romania, delimited by territorial administrative criteria.
The person's permanent residence is the address where he/she declares to have the main dwelling, printed as such on its identity card and registered by the administrative bodies of the State.
To set up the value of this indicator, the usual residence is not taken into account as well as the period and/or reason of absence from permanent residence.
The statistical data are constantly revised, according to the Revision Policy of NIS.
Thus, the data for 2020 have been modified and are of "revised".
Data prior to 2020 will not be revised. The revised data on vital events ( deaths) for the year T represents the absolute final data related to vital events (deaths) recorded in year T, to which were added vital events (deaths) belatedly recorded in years (T+1), (T+2) and the first four months of (T+3), but that occurred in year T.
