Migration statistics count and describe movements of people into and out of New Zealand (international or external migration), and within the country (internal migration).
International travel and migration statistics record arrivals to and departures from New Zealand by overseas visitors, New Zealand resident travellers and permanent and long-term migrants (immigrants and emigrants).
Internal migration statistics count numbers of residents moving within New Zealand and are measured by the five-yearly Census of Population and Dwellings. Information on reasons for moving or not moving is available from other surveys.
Review of international travel and migration statistics
Statistics New Zealand has completed a review of international travel and migration outputs available in Infoshare, a free online tool that provides access to a range of time-series data, and INFOS. The review was to ensure information remains relevant and easily accessible. A new international travel and migration group (ITM) is now available and can be found under Tourism on the Browse page of the Infoshare database. This group will replace the external migration (EMI) group. To allow users time to familiarise themselves with the ITM group, EMI will remain available until 30 September 2009. To help users move from EMI to ITM, a webpage 'International travel and migration data on Infoshare' has been established to provide a link between EMI and ITM outputs, as well as information on the data available in ITM.
