Overview
Slovenia's infant mortality rate stood at 1.7 in 2025, a decline of +0.1 from 2023. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 1.7 by 2025. Slovenia ranked 190th globally.
Slovenia's Infant Mortality Rate has exhibited a significant decline over the past four decades. The country's all-time peak of 15.30 in 1981 reflects the challenges faced by its healthcare system during that era. In stark contrast, Slovenia's Infant Mortality Rate has been steadily decreasing, reaching a record low of 1.74 in 2025, mirroring the trend observed in its peer countries, such as Finland, which also recorded a rate of 1.74. This improvement is a testament to the country's advancements in healthcare infrastructure and policies aimed at reducing infant mortality. Slovenia's progress is also comparable to that of other countries with high standards of living, like Singapore, which boasts an even lower rate of 1.58. However, this trend may be influenced by demographic changes, such as a decrease in total fertility rate, and Slovenia's continued success in reducing Infant Mortality Rate will depend on the effectiveness of its healthcare system in addressing these emerging challenges.
