The one-year Household Income and Expenditure Survey 2023 is in progress
The first quarterly data collection for the one-year Household Income and Expenditure Survey 2023 (HIES 2023) has concluded. Data were collected from a total of 1,557 residential units, with 694 units (44.6%) completing the online questionnaire.
The Statistics and Census Service (DSEC) has begun the second quarterly data collection.

To ensure the quality of the data collected, enumerators may revisit or call the households for data verification or obtaining supplementary information during the data collection period.
