Definitions & limitations
All offences covered by the national source, including immigration offences where recorded. These are citizenship categories. They cannot identify immigrants or unauthorized residents. National definitions differ; do not rank countries by these counts.
These data identify citizenship or nationality. They do not separately identify foreign-born people or naturalized citizens. Counts are not population rates, and changes can reflect reporting, enforcement or justice-system practices.
