The Factbook consists of four chapters. The first chapter provides aggregated data on total Portuguese emigration, much of which is estimates, as well as comparative data on Portuguese and global emigration. The second chapter contains more detailed information on the four indicators of Portuguese emigration to the main destination countries: flows, stocks, citizenship, and consular records. The third chapter brings together the main information concerning remittances received in Portugal and sent from Portugal. The content of chapter four changes each year. In the first issue, last year, the Factbook provided a chronological series on Portuguese emigration to all main destinations during the 21st century. This year’s issue contains data from the 2000/01 and 2010/11 censuses concerning the socio-demographic characteristics of migrant Portuguese populations in the main OECD destination countries.
