Net Migration Eases To Under 30,000
New Zealand had a net migration gain of 26,400 in the March 2025 year, according to provisional estimates published by Stats NZ today.
“The net migration gain of 26,400 in the March 2025 year was well down from a gain of 100,400 in the March 2024 year,” international migration statistics spokesperson Sarah Drake said.
“The fall in net migration in the March 2025 year was mainly due to fewer migrant arrivals, although departures also rose to a provisional annual record,” Drake said.
Provisionally there were 149,600 migrant arrivals and 123,300 migrant departures in the March 2025 year, compared with 207,100 migrant arrivals and 106,700 migrant departures in the March 2024 year.
