Serbs Around the World Statistics

There have been many estimates regarding the population of people of Serbian heritage around the world in efforts to determine the size of the Serbian Diaspora. These estimates have also been influenced by the definition of Diaspora and Serb identity.

The data displayed here is based on statistics published by NIN magazine and those provided by Serbia’s Ministry for Diaspora. Our tables show data provided by both sources while the charts show data provided by NIN as their data is more comprehensive.
