Statistics About New Zealand Immigration

Official numbers reveal migration gains of 43,000 for the year finished in Nov, which depends on the original border movements.

That correlates with a migration addition figure of approximately 62,000 for the year to Oct, which depended on what travelers wrote on the cards of departure, which have presently been discarded.

Migration additions are when a higher number of people have come in the nation with the purpose of settling than having departed. The current measure provided measures that 144,000 individuals had come to New Zealand, and 100,600 had left, in the year closed Nov.

The current method of counting  is more reliable and will develop population measures, Stats NZ told. The current data presently yields measures that migration topped in the year 2016, a year prior than earlier thought.

Below the traditional method the long-term immigrant's number may have been exceeded in some years, and lessened in others, the organization told.

Updated provisions depend on the new system showed migration additions were markedly below. However, the critical outcome continues a downward trend in migration additions, as growing people numbers are leaving the nation.
