Sumario:• Immigrants have higher life expectancy at age 1 than the native-born in Denmark, Finland and Norway do from 1990 to 2019. • Immigrants in Denmark, Finland and Norway increasingly enhance national life expectancy at age 1 over time. • Immigrants in Sweden have lower life expectancy at age 1 than native-born in Sweden do in 1990, but similar levels by 2019. • The effect of immigrants on national life expectancy at age 1 in Sweden transforms from negative to positive over time. • The unique mortality of immigrants affects rankings of life expectancy at age 1 in the Nordic region in recent years.
