1The observation, as this site stores it

Observation ID
152864
Indicator
Population by citizenship, 1 January (per country)
What is counted
De jure population stock at 1 January by citizenship, age TOTAL, both sexes (Eurostat migr_pop1ctz), one member state per snapshot: the nine broad citizenship groups for every year and individual foreign countries for the latest three. Citizenship is the legal bond to a state, not country of birth and not ethnicity.
Statistical concept
De jure (usual resident) population, stock at 1 January, by citizenship
Geography
Sweden (country)
Period
1 January 2025 (2025-01-01 to 2025-01-01)
Nationality
China (CN)
The Eurostat `citizen` codelist as the per-country migration tables use it: reporting-country citizens, foreign and stateless persons with their EU27 / non-EU27 / stateless split, the EFTA and candidate-country subsets of the non-EU27 group, unknown, and (stock table only) individual foreign countries. EFTA_FOR and CC9_23_FOR are SUBSETS of NEU27_2020_FOR, never additional parts.

Methodological caveats

De jure population stock at 1 January, as the reporting country supplies it to Eurostat: the figure is that country's own, published through Eurostat, so it is never independent corroboration of its national population series. It is a different concept from a census enumerated population and from an end-of-year series, with a different reference moment, so it is never charted on the same axis as either. Citizenship is published in broad groups: citizens of the reporting country, foreign and stateless citizens split into EU27 and non-EU27 foreign citizens, and a set of historical EU, EFTA and candidate-country aggregates, with individual foreign countries for some countries and years. The EFTA and candidate-country groups are subsets of non-EU27 foreign citizens, not additional parts, and are never summed into a total. The published parts match the total closely but not always exactly (EU27 2024: a residual of 83,822 people, an artefact of summing 27 national tables), so no reconciliation is asserted unless it is stated for a specific country.
