As of October 2023, approximately 64.97 thousand Japanese residents lived in the United Kingdom, slightly decreasing from the previous year. Numbers peaked in 2015 at about 68 thousand residents, but dropped to the ten-year low-point of about 60.6 thousand residents quickly afterwards in 2018. 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.
