Individuals using the internet in the last 3 months (annual)

Annual share of individuals aged 16 to 74 who used the internet in the last 3 months, for EU member states, EFTA countries, EU candidate countries and EU/euro-area aggregates. Eurostat dataset isoc_ci_ifp_iu ('Individuals - internet use'), filtered to the headline indicator I_IU3 ('Last internet use: in last 3 months'), unit PC_IND (percent of individuals), total population 16-74. Each row is one (year, country). Method: Eurostat's annual survey on ICT usage in households and by individuals, self-reported by national statistical offices; non-EU/EFTA/candidate countries are dropped (same licensing rule as the other Eurostat datasets). Units: percent of individuals. Caveats: the ICT survey questionnaire was substantially revised in 2021, so pre-2021 values are only broadly comparable; the UK and Kosovo (XK) are dropped by the connector's commercial-use geo rule; the EU, EU27_2020, EU28, EA and historical aggregates are included as published. Coverage: ~42 geographic units after the geo rule, 2002 to the present, annual.

Join keys: country_code (ISO 3166-1 alpha-3), year. Cadence: refreshed yearly; Eurostat updates the ICT indicators in spring.
