12.7% fewer births, the population shrinks further in the first half of the year

Albania's population is falling rapidly due to the high birth rate. For the first 6 months of the year, the number decreased by 12.7% or 1500 less than the same period of the previous year. All counties report a decrease in the number of babies born, while in terms of deaths, this indicator has significantly improved with the passing of the pandemic.

Despite the fact that the natural increase is positive where births exceed deaths, the population of Albania is decreasing rapidly. INSTAT data show that the number of babies born in the first 6 months is 12.7% lower than in the same period a year ago, or in other words about 1500 births less until June.

Categorized by regions, in the second 3 months of the year, it results that only one region of the country recorded an increase in the number of births, while 11 other regions recorded a decrease.

Despite the fact that Tirana maintains the highest number of births, it results in declining figures. From 2,059 births in T-2 2022 to 1,846 births in T2-2023.

While Gjirokastra records the lowest number of births with 84 births.

With the passing of the great wave of the pandemic, all counties report a decrease in the number of deaths. The biggest decrease is the county of Durrës with a 17.6% decrease. Kukësi is the district with the lowest number of deaths with 97 deaths, while Tirana has the highest number with 1,147 deaths.

More births than deaths in the second quarter of 2023 were registered in 5 regions of the country, while in the other 7, the natural increase of the population is negative. The county with the highest natural increase is Tirana, while the county with the lowest natural increase is Korça, with 184 more deaths than births.
