Net Migration Loss To Australia In 2024

There was a net migration loss of 30,000 people from New Zealand to Australia in the December 2024 year, according to provisional estimates released by Stats NZ today.

“The net migration loss from New Zealand to Australia in 2024 was similar to the loss of 29,400 in 2023,” international migration statistics spokesperson Sarah Drake said.

“The loss in 2024 is the largest for a calendar year since 2012, but below the record loss of 43,700 in the March 2012 year.”

Traditionally, there has been a net migration loss from New Zealand to Australia. This averaged about 30,000 a year during 2004 to 2013, and 3,000 a year during 2014 to 2019.
