Usual resident population, on 1 January, includes all persons who have their usual residence in Romania for a period of at least 12 months. The coverage of the resident population represents all persons of Romanian citizenship, foreign or stateless who have their usual residence in Romania for a period of at least 12 months. The resident population of Romania consists of:
Simultaneously, the resident population of Romania does not include:
We cannot identify if persons who may be illegal, irregular or undocumented migrants are included or excluded in usual resident population. The usually resident population on 1st January of the reference year includes all persons (Romanian citizens, foreign citizens and persons without citizenship) who have had or intend to have their usual residence in Romania for at least 12 months. The usual residence is the place where a person normally spends the daily period of rest, regardless of temporary absences for purposes of recreation, holidays, visits to friends and relatives, business, medical treatment or religious pilgrimage. The usual residence may be the same as the permanent residence or may differ from it, for persons who choose to establish their usual residence in a locality other than the locality of permanent residence, in the country or abroad. The usually resident population includes the persons who immigrated to Romania but excludes the persons who emigrated from Romania.
The method used to calculate the “usually resident population” indicator is the components method:

11.1. Quality assurance | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Beginning with the Population and Housing Census - 2011, Romania's usual resident population is computed by respecting the criteria of usual residence and at least 12 month of presence/absence on the Romanian territory.
Component method is applied having 2021 Census results as starting point, i.e. by adding the demographic events under the usual residence definition to the usual residence population of the previous reference date.
The usual resident population on 2021 Romanian Population and Housing Census was determined in accordance with the Conference of European Statisticians Recommendations for the 2010 -2011 Censuses of Population and Housing and with the provisions of Regulation (EC) No 763/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 July 2008 on population and housing censuses.
According to these recommendations, Romania’s usual resident population includes:
The definitions of vital events are in compliance with the principles and recommendations of the United Nations Statistical Commission:
Only births and deaths taking place on the Romanian territory are included, births and deaths of persons who have the usual residence abroad are not included. Net migration balance is complied as difference between number of immigrants and number of emigrants which are estimated in accordance with the provision of the Regulation no 862/2007 concerning community statistics on migration and international protection. Data on emigrants and immigrants flows were estimated based on multiple data sources, the main ones consisting in: the data provided by national statistical offices of Italy and Spain, the "mirror statistics” on international migration (the immigrants from Romania declared by the other Member State representing emigrants on Romanian statistics and, the opposite, the emigrants to Romania declared by other countries representing immigrants for national statistics), econometric model based on small area estimation (SAE) techniques, data from administrative sources. It should be noted that mirror statistics are used to evaluate general trend of emigrants and immigrants figures for year 2019.

Data sources used: - 2021 Population Census - Vital Statistics - Migration Statistics |
|||
18.2. Frequency of data collection | |||
Vital statistics (live-births and deaths) - data are collected monthly. Migration statistics - data are collected twice a year from administrative sources, and immigrants and emigrants are estimated annualy. |
|||
18.3. Data collection | |||
Vital events are collected monthly by NSI through special statistical bulletins for live-births and deceased. These statistical bulletins are designed by the National Statistical Institute. Live-birth statistical bulletin collects the following information:
Deceased statistical bulletin collects the following information:
Part of the migrations statistics are obtained from administrative sources, from several bodies of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Data concerns mainly the permanent emigrations, permanent immigrations and part of the temporary immigration especialy for those coming from third countries. |
|||
18.4. Data validation | |||
Processing at the local level:
Processing at the NIS level:
Data processing flow for migration statistics consists in:
Elaboration of data logical control conditions Logical control conditions at questionnaire level follow: questionnaire’s logical flow tracking and verification, compliance of correlations between variables, verification of framing within the limits of the data for certain variables.
Data on emigrants and immigrants flows were estimated based on multiple data sources, the main ones being: the data provided by national statistical offices of Italy and Spain, the "mirror statistics” on international migration (the immigrants from Romania declared by the other Member State representing emigrants on Romanian statistics and, the opposite, the emigrants to Romania declared by other countries representing immigrants for national statistics), econometric model based on small area estimation (SAE) techniques, data from administrative sources. It should be noted that mirror statistics are used to evaluate general trend of emigrants and immigrants figures for year 2021. |

In statistical adjustment we include tardive declarated and registrated live-births and deaths. |
|
|||
Population data sent prior to December each year are provisional due to preliminary estimation of international migration and lack of information about delayed vital statistics. Population data sent in December in Eurostat UNIDEMO data collection are final. At national level, there is a data review policy. - year + 12 months – final data - year + 32 months – final-revised data For example: - final data on usual resident population on 2020, January 1 are available in 2020, December 31; - final-revised data on usual resident population on 2020, January 1 are available in 2022, August. We mention that the revisions are insignificant. The review involves mainly the age group of 0-4 years, taking into account live-births that occurred abroad and for which there is a gap between the moments of occurrence and registration in the country. |
