Registered residents. Foreign-born with two foreign-born parents. Foreign-born with native-born adoptive parents are excluded. On Residents: Please note that refugees/asylum seekers are not automatically registered as residents in the Nordic countries, and are therefore not fully included in the statistics of this matrix. This means that for example immigrants from Ukraine are underestimated in the present matrix, since they have not been in a Nordic country long enough or otherwise do not meet the rules for population registration. See the respective country's regulations for further information. Percentages are produced with a base of a minimum of 50 individuals per cell. Employed: Employed in percent is the proportion of employed in the whole population aged 20-64. See valuenotes for individual reporting countries. Definition of Country Background:
Foreign-born with two foreign-born parents: their own country of birth.
Descendants: mother's country of birth, or father's country of birth if mother's is unknown.
Rest of the population: Reporting country i.e. one or both parents' country of birth is the reporting country.
The list of countries reported under Country Background was expanded in the 2024 update. For the first three years in the matrix, a total of 20 countries were used. They were the largest non-Nordic countries of birth in each Nordic country and at a Nordic level in 2020/2021. For each Nordic country, the countries were ranked from largest to smallest in terms of population size. The countries were then given a sum-rank for the Nordic region, and then ranked again at a Nordic level. In addition, for the purpose of comparison, the chosen countries had to be ranked among the 25 highest in at least 3 of the 5 Nordic countries. The result was 20 countries for foreign-born with two foreign-born parents, and 9 countries for descendants. For the last three years in the matrix, a complete list of countries, following the ISO 3166-2 standard, has been used. A person can have a background in a country that does not exist anymore, for example Former Soviet Union. For Denmark, Finland, Iceland and Sweden they are still registered as having their background in that country, while Norway have re-registrered these under a today existing country (so that people with a background in Former Soviet Union are registered under Russian Federation etc.). Definition of lenth of stay: Time since first date of registred residency. In some cases, subsets do not add up to specified totals. This is because summation in these cases took place after small values were suppressed for confidentiality reasons. The differences are, however, small in relation to the values. This matrix is the result of an integration and migration co-operation project involving the Nordic Statistical Institutes. On the 2024 update:
Three new years were added to the Integration and Migration matrices.
In addition to percentages, absolute numbers, i.e. number of people are also reported in some of the matrices this update.
The list of countries reported under Country Background was expanded in the 2024 update, see above.
