Explanation
The EU has 27 member states today. It had 28 until the United Kingdom left in 2020, and Croatia's accession in 2013 was the last time a country joined.
Tips
- 27 is the current count, one less than before Brexit in 2020.
- Don't confuse EU membership numbers with Schengen or the eurozone, those have different member lists.
