D’après Hanban, l’organisme gouvernemental dépendant du ministère chinois de l’Éducation, chargé de superviser l’ensemble des instituts Confucius dans le monde, il y aurait 541 instituts Confucius et 1,170 classes Confucius à travers 162 pays (ou régions) fin 2019.
En février 2013, l’université McMaster au Canada est devenue la première université connue des médias à avoir fermé son institut Confucius. En 2023, on comptabilise 129 universités, 2 gouvernement et 3 conseil scolaire à travers le monde, ayant rompu leurs liens avec les instituts et classes Confucius, ce qui a mené à la fermeture de 128 de ces instituts.
