Foreign nationals over time

20192025

These are prison population snapshots, not the number of crimes committed each year.

Definitions & limitations

Adult prisoners present on 31 December, including remand and sentenced prisoners. A prisoner charged with or convicted of multiple offences appears in each applicable category. Do not sum offence categories or annual prison snapshots to calculate crimes or unique prisoners. Broad categories follow Italian law; immigration-law offences are identified separately. Categories overlap and must not be added together. Nationality does not identify birthplace, naturalization or immigration status.

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.
