How many babies are born in Kyrgyzstan?

149 thousand babies born in Kyrgyzstan in 2026. That is 0.11% of all births worldwide, and the 96th largest of any country. UN projection

2024–2100 uses the UN World Population Prospects 2024 medium scenario, based on assumptions about fertility, mortality and migration. These are projections, not observed births or guaranteed outcomes. Uncertainty increases further into the future; this site does not display prediction intervals.

What the numbers show

The highest annual births in Kyrgyzstan among estimates through 2023 were in 2019, at about 173K. That is roughly 32 times the estimated ~5.39K births a year in 1 CE.

At 2.72 children per woman, fertility in Kyrgyzstan is above the level of about 2.1 that would hold a population steady over the long run without migration.

How many babies are born in Kyrgyzstan each year?

An estimated 149 thousand babies are born in Kyrgyzstan in 2026, according to the UN World Population Prospects 2024 medium projection. That is about 407 a day and 0.11% of all births worldwide.

What is the birth rate in Kyrgyzstan?

Kyrgyzstan has an estimated 20.1 births per 1,000 people in 2026, and a total fertility rate of 2.72 children per woman.

Where these numbers come from

2026 figures are the UN World Population Prospects 2024 medium scenario. UN estimates cover 1950–2023; projections cover 2024–2100. Earlier years come from Gapminder’s reconstructions (1800–1949) and a model applied to HYDE population estimates (before 1800). The full chain is set out in the methodology, and every source is listed on the sources page.
