All population components are based on definitions provided for in the European Regulation (EU) No. 1260/2013 on European demographic statistics. Total Population: includes both Maltese and foreign residents. The total population at the end of year t, is computed using the following equation: Pt = Pt-1 + Bt - Dt + It – Et, where Pt is the total resident population at the end of year t, Pt-1 is the total resident population at the end of year t-1, Bt is the total number of births born to mothers resident in Malta registered during year t, Dt is the total number of deaths of persons resident in Malta registered during year t, It is the total immigration of both Maltese and foreign nationals registered during year t who immigrated with the intention to live in Malta for a period of at least 12 months. Et is the total emigration of both Maltese and foreign nationals resident in Malta registered during year t who leave the country for a period of at least 12 months. Maltese Population: includes Maltese residents only. The Maltese population at the end of year t is computed using the following equation: P’t = P’t-1 + B’t – D’t + I’t – E’t , where: P’t is the Maltese resident population at the end of year t, P’t-1 is the Maltese resident population at the end of year t-1, B’t is the number of Maltese births born to mothers resident in Malta registered during year t, D’t is the number of deaths occurring to Maltese citizens resident in Malta during year t, I’t is the total immigration of Maltese nationals registered during year t who immigrated with the intention to live in Malta for a period of at least 12 months. E’t is the total emigration of Maltese nationals during year t who leave the country for a period of at least 12 months.
