About 2018 Data

    The number presented here refers to police-recorded incidents. The sum of disaggregated figures below adds up to more than the total because crimes can be recorded under more than one bias motivation. Both numbers include hate speech and discrimination incidents, which fall outside of OSCE's definition of hate crimes.

Hate crime recorded by police

Because there may be several motives registered in one criminal case, the number of police-recorded hate crimes by bias motivation below is higher (699) than the overall figure presented above (624).

National developments

The Police Directorate has issued guidelines for registering hate crimes for use by all police officers when receiving reports of hate crimes.

The authorities have continued implementing two action plans: the Action Plan against Anti-Semitism 2016-2020; and the LGBTI Action Plan: Safety, Diversity, Openness 2017-2020, on countering discrimination based on sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression.
