Countries by Organ Donation Rate 2024

About This Dataset

Countries ranked by the number of deceased organ donors per million population (PMP) in 2024 according to International Registry in Organ Donation and Transplantation data. Spain has led the world in organ donation rates for over 30 consecutive years — a record attributed to its opt-out presumed-consent system and the establishment of a dedicated hospital transplant coordination network in the 1980s.

Analysis

Spain (49.6), Croatia (43.9) and Portugal (41.8) take the top three in Organ Donors Per Million (PMP) in 2024. Values run from 49.6 at the top to 24.2 at the bottom, a spread of 25.4. First and second are separated by 5.70, so the leader sits inside the field rather than apart from it. Below the top two the field is tightly packed: the remaining 6 run from 41.8 down to 24.2.
