The aim of the analyzes was to diagnose the demographic situation in selected countries of Central and Eastern Europe (EU-10) in the context of its importance in socio-economic development against the background of global population changes. An analysis of statistical data regarding the demographic situation was carried out according to Webb’s typology. An unfavorable trend of population loss was indicated due to the limited possibilities of effectively stimulating the increase in population growth. The selected group of Central and Eastern European countries (EU-10) was characterized by a diverse demographic situation in the years 2000-2021. These countries are dominated by the phenomenon of negative natural growth. Dually inactive countries are in a difficult situation. However, there were no dually active countries in terms of demographic situation. Against the background of the dominant phenomenon of negative natural growth, the progressing migration processes towards the predominance of immigration over emigration can be assessed positively.
