The national Statistical Office, Statistics Faroe Islands, is authorised by law.
Statistics Faroe Islands adheres to the fundamental principles of official statistics and European Statistics Code of Practice. However, a national statistical plan does not exist for Faroe Islands.

This table provides metadata for the actual indicator available from data.faroeislands statistics closest to the corresponding global SDG indicator. Please note that even when the global SDG indicator is fully available from Faroese statistics, this table should be consulted for information on national methodology and other Faroese-specific metadata information.
