List of newspapers by circulation

List of newspapers in the world by circulation
)
This article needs to be updated.(March 2020) |
This is a list of paid daily
circulation. Worldwide newspaper circulation figures are compiled by the International Federation of Audit Bureaux of Circulations and World Association of Newspapers and News Publishers
. This list shows the latest figures that are publicly available through either organisation.
Some figures are disputed; the numbers for Japanese newspapers have been subjected to claims of "oshigami" (exaggeration by over-supplying papers to businesses).[1] Free newspapers are not counted.
