How many babies are born in Uzbekistan?

894 thousand babies born in Uzbekistan in 2026. That is 0.68% of all births worldwide, and the 35th 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 Uzbekistan among estimates through 2023 were in 2023, at about 943K. That is roughly 48 times the estimated ~19.5K births a year in 1 CE.

At 3.40 children per woman, fertility in Uzbekistan 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 Uzbekistan each year?

Uzbekistan has an estimated 23.7 births per 1,000 people in 2026, and a total fertility rate of 3.40 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.
