According to the Tibetan Demographic Survey of 1998, carried out by the Government in Exile's Planning Council, there are approximately 111,170 Tibetans in exile. However, this figure could be significantly less than the true number of Tibetans in exile currently. In the years subsequent to the survey, many Tibetans have crossed the Indian and Nepalese borders. A grey area also exists concerning children born to exiled-Tibetan parents, and there is a chance that they may have been overlooked.
