Paper 2
Movement into a country to live there.
Revise: Migration and the UK's Changing Population GeographyImmigration policy affects who can enter a country and under what conditions. It therefore influences both the scale of migration and the range of countries from which migrants arrive.
Moving to establish usual residence in another country for at least 12 months, or with the intention of staying for at least 12 months, under Eurostat's definition.
Age at arrival is not a migrant's current age. Census counts of overseas-born residents are not annual immigration totals.
