Japan was the G7 country with the lowest rate of thefts between 2010 and 2020. In 2020, less than 300 cases of thefts per 100,000 inhabitants were reported in the Asian country. On the other hand, the United Kingdom had the highest rate in 2018, the latest year for which numbers were available, at 2,700 cases per 100,000 population. The fall in the theft rate in 2020 in all countries must be seen in relation with the COVID-19 pandemic.
