1The observation, as this site stores it

Observation ID
7222
Indicator
Long-term emigrants
What is counted
People who left Cyprus in the given calendar year, intending to reside abroad for 12 months or more, as recorded at departure. Not split by sex in this table. Emigration is a generally under-recorded flow in EU population registers, Cyprus included: someone who leaves without notifying the authorities is not counted as an emigrant.
Statistical concept

One of TWO ALTERNATIVE partitions CYSTAT stacks on a single collapsed axis in table 1840050E: the citizenship group of the emigrant (Cypriot / EU / Non-EU), which sums independently to the annual total. NOT the census citizenship-country codelist — different codes, different vintage (this is a 2013-2024 annual series), and only EU/non-EU groups, never individual countries.

Methodological caveats

Same collapsed-axis shape as 1840030E, one size smaller: CYSTAT publishes ONE dimension of 6 categories stacking two ALTERNATIVE partitions that each sum independently to the annual total (citizenship 1,660+6,931+18,292; next residence 8,244+18,639; both equal 26,883 for 2024, matching 1840010E's emigration figure exactly). Reading the axis as one cross-tab would double-count. Covers 2013-2024. Emigration is also systematically under-recorded in most EU population registers, Cyprus included: someone who leaves without notifying the authorities is not counted as an emigrant.
