## Methodology

Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through the estate's fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2). 3 of the 16 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 13 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 3 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in EUR (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 10 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. Derivation as chartered: one row per jurisdiction per record type: the office that issues it, the request route (online portal, municipal counter, postal), the fee, the stated turnaround, and whether an apostille is needed; the derived figures are the total document cost and elapsed time to assemble a three-generation file per country, and the count of countries whose records are now issuable online - which is changing fast (Italy's ANPR opened civil-status extracts in 2026)
