Note The Portuguese figures correspond to those who have been given a registration number in the National Insurance Recording System (social security system), which is compulsory for those wishing to work.
The value of the Portuguese total in this table may not correspond to that in table "A.4 Foreign inflows" because statistical disclosure control was applied to this information to avoid the disclosure of confidential data.
