This table contains figures on the underlying causes of death of deceased residents of the Netherlands. The causes of death are shown according to the comprehensive list of “three-character categories” by age (per 5-year class) and gender.
In the 2013 statistical year, CBS switched to the use of international software for automatic encoding of causes of death. This makes the figures more reproducible and comparable internationally. However, there are some significant shifts in the causes of death.
