Migration

Description

Since 1988, migration data have come from the National Register. This is where the information from municipal population registers is centralised. Internal migration statistics describe changes of residence within the country. International migration statistics describe immigration from abroad and emigration abroad. Since 1 February 1995, asylum seekers registered in the waiting register are no longer included in the resident population. They are included in the statistics on the evolution of the population only when they obtain the refugee status or are regularised on some other basis, in the category “register change”. From 2007, “total international immigration” includes the following former categories: “Migration Movements - Arrivals” (or “International immigration”) “Register changes” “Re-registrations after deletion”. From 2007, “total international emigration” includes the following former categories: “Migration Movements - Departures” (or “International emigration”) “Automatically deleted population” The migration balance is calculated as the difference between the total number of international immigrations and the total number of international emigrations
