As of October 2023, approximately 42.08 thousand residents from Japan were living in Germany. Numbers peaked in 2017 when around 45.8 thousand residents were reported, but have been on a steady downward trend ever since. The statistic, which is based on the information gathered by Japanese diplomatic missions abroad, does not include descendants of Japanese emigrants (nikkeijin) who do not hold Japanese citizenship. People with multiple citizenship are counted.
