Population statistics in Austria in principle follow a “de-jure”-concept, including only people with a registered main residence in Austria. Data are based on information from the Central Residence Register (CRR) of the Ministry of Interior. They are stored in a statistical mirror register established at Statistics Austria called population register (POPREG). Data transmitted to Statistics Austria are pseudonymised according to e-government law and rules, containing a statistical PIN only, which allows a deterministic linkage of all records of a single person across the different statistical domains. Besides, the population register contains individual registration histories, while the administrative register only stores the latest valid information. Population and Migration Statistics are produced on the basis of an ex-post-analysis of pseudonymised microdata on registrations and de-registrations in the statistical population register. However, a few modifications have been undertaken to shift this count of registered population more towards a de-facto-concept suiting to UN recommendations. These modifications mainly target issues of overestimation, i.e. people being registered, but de-facto not forming part of the usual residence population.
The methodology of these modifications is described in detail in the standard documentation of population statistics (long version in German; short version in English). We therefore believe, that over-estimation should not pose a problem in the population statistics provided. In contrast to the measures against overestimation described above, issues of underestimation have only been tackled for the estimation of the usually resident population. That means, that in contrast to national population figures, non-registered people having their usual residence in Austria are included in the usually resident population stock for the first time. |

14.1. Timeliness | |||
For the purposes of qualified majority voting in the Council, Member States shall provide the Commission (Eurostat) with data on the total population at national level at the reference time, in accordance with Article 2 ( c ), within eight months of the end of the reference year. |

15.3. Coherence - cross domain | |||
The total usual residence population transmitted by the national statistical offices to Eurostat in the framework of the Usual Residence Population data collection may differ from those available in National Accounts, Labour Force Survey or in the survey on Income and Living Conditions. The difference is given by the population coverage (see metadata specific to each domain). |
|||
15.4. Coherence - internal | |||
The total usual residence population transmitted by the national statistical offices to Eurostat in the framework of the Usual Residence Population data collection may differ from those available in the rest of the Demographic domain. The difference is given by the population definition (see metadata specific to each domain). |
