Born in Portugal
Note There will be residents in this country who are counted as "born abroad" and / or "foreign nationality" because they were born or are descendants of residents in other republics of the former USSR before it was divided in 1991. Therefore, reading of the corresponding values should be made considering this geopolitical change to the detriment of immigration, since before 1991 the former USSR included 15 independent republics: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Estonia, Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Russia , Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine and Uzbekistan. Data for the total resident population refer to 1 January.
The data from 2000 were revised by the UN and amended by OEm on 23/11/2022.
