WHO Mortality Database, deaths by intentional self-harmWorld Health Organization (WHO) · Death and health registersRetrieved 2026-10-25 | 02021 | Registered deaths with underlying cause intentional self-harm, ICD-10 X60-X84, all ages and both sexes, divided by UN World Population Prospects 2024 population for 1 July, because WHO's population file has no figure for this year.Crude rate: deaths of all ages and both sexes divided by the whole population, not adjusted for age, so that the lines can be compared. Codes used: detailed external-cause codes, none of them self-harm, so zero deaths recorded. Years where a country reports only a total for all external causes have no value. National rows only, no sub-national or partial-coverage rows. Year rule: this is the latest year this source has. The yearly series also covers years before this country's WHO data switched to ICD-10; those years count ICD-9 Basic Tabulation List item B54 (E950-E959, suicide and self-inflicted injury) up to 1995, with population from the same sources. Each switch is listed under reporting changes. Raw files: morticd10_part1-6.zip (0 self-harm deaths) and WPP2024_Demographic_Indicators_Medium.csv.gz (https://population.un.org/wpp/). WHO publishes the data as the country sent them and does not adjust for incomplete registration. The same file records 0 deaths of undetermined intent (Y10-Y34) for this year; some of these may be deaths by suicide. Series years before ICD-10: morticd09.zip (WHO, retrieved 2026-10-27). | 4 of 5 checks

Who reports it, and since when
No source of these kinds: model-based estimate.
- Single source: nothing to check it against
- WHO register, 2000: WHO's data for this country switch from ICD-9 to ICD-10 in 2000: self-harm deaths are ICD-10 codes X60-X84 (intentional self-harm) from 2000, and ICD-9 Basic Tabulation List item B54 (E950-E959, suicide and self-inflicted injury) up to 1995. source
- WHO register: no figure here for 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999
figure no figure here, inside its range no later figure recorded change
Why the numbers differ
- Every line uses the crude rate (all deaths divided by the whole population), so the lines can agree. Crude rates also reflect how old a population is, so they are not the same as age-standardised rates.
- The register line counts only deaths coded X60-X84. Deaths coded as undetermined intent (Y10-Y34) stay outside it, and in 72 countries they equal 25% or more of the self-harm count in the year shown, so how intent is coded changes the rate. Each such line says so. (source, retrieved 2026-10-25)
- WHO's estimate adjusts the register: it reassigns ill-defined deaths, moves some deaths of undetermined intent into causes that include self-harm, and scales totals to its all-cause estimates. Its cause group also adds Y87.0. For countries with no usable register the figure comes from modelling. (source, retrieved 2026-11-02)
- Registration coverage differs. Where many deaths are never registered or have no medically certified cause, the register rate counts only part of the deaths. WHO's estimate can sit above or below the register rate in such countries, because it also rests on modelling.
- Recording rules differ between countries. WHO notes that stigma, and the illegal status of suicidal behaviour in some countries, make under-reporting and misclassification likely. These are differences in how deaths are recorded; the page does not explain the rates themselves. (source, retrieved 2026-11-02)
- Eurostat and the WHO register hold the same national death records, as their death counts show. Eurostat adds Y87.0, counts residents who died abroad and uses its own population, so its rate can differ slightly. It is shown but not counted as a separate source. (source, retrieved 2026-11-02)
Common mistakes
- National suicide statistics can use another definition. For England and Wales, the Office for National Statistics adds deaths of undetermined intent at ages 15 and over and counts self-harm from age 10, so its figures do not match the WHO register line here. (source, retrieved 2026-11-02)
- In countries with small populations a few deaths move the rate a lot, so a single year says little about the level, and WHO blanks very small counts in some files.
- Ranking countries on a modelled figure overstates what is known. WHO itself warns against over-interpreting detailed rankings of deaths by cause or country (methods paper, section 8). (source, retrieved 2026-11-02)
