Migration characteristics of persons registered in the Municipal Basic Administration of Personal Data (GBA), coordinated (01-01-1995-01-01-2018)

Description

For persons who settle in the Netherlands from abroad, the date of establishment and the country from which one comes from is recorded. For persons who settle abroad from the Netherlands, the date of departure and the country of destination is recorded. In the DPA, specific rules apply to be registered or deregistered as a migrant. See the variable migration type. As soon as a migration movement takes place, an end date (EINDEMIGRATIEDATE) is added to the record of the previous migration movement. A new record will also be added with the date of the start of the new migration movement (AANVANGMIGRATIEDATE).

This file is not suitable for determining the annual number of migrations as published (once) by team Demography. There are two reasons for this: — all changes relating to past messages, which have become known in a later year, are also taken into account in older years; — messages fulfilled within demographic statistics are not always counted in the year of event but in the year of receipt. Within this bus it is not possible to distinguish this. Users who do want or need to connect to the numbers published by Team Demography are recommended to use the GBAMIGRATIEGEBEURTENISBUS file. B. In this file migration movements have been made consistent with each other. For example, if a person has previously been removed administratively and then immigrates, the previous removal is changed to an emigration (with unknown country of destination). C. Of all those who have established themselves in the Netherlands before 1 January 1995, the AANVANGMIGRATIEDATE was set on 1 January 1995. ### Population Includes all persons who have ever registered in the DPA from abroad and those who have settled abroad from 1 January 1995 from the Netherlands.
