| Observations |
Until 2011, the number of deceased (0-27 days) and live births respectively included deaths (0-27 days) and live births whose mothers were domiciled in Romania on the date of birth and whose birth was registered at the Civil Status Offices in Romania.
Starting from 2012, only the deceased (0-27 days) and live births whose mothers had their usual residence in Romania at the date of birth and whose birth was registered at the Civil Status Offices in Romania are included.
Usual residence means the place at which a person normally spends the daily period of rest, regardless of temporary absences for purposes of recreation, holiday, visits to friends and relatives, business, medical treatment or religious pilgrimage or, in default, the place of legal or registered 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 and live-births) for the year T represents the absolute final data related to vital events ( deaths and live-births) recorded in year T, to which were added vital events (deaths and live-births) belatedly recorded in years (T+1), (T+2) and the first four months of (T+3), but that occurred in year T.
