France
After two years of decline, permanent immigration to France from outside the EEA and Switzerland increased in 2012 to 163 000 persons (an annual increase of 6% and the highest level since 2006). The increase was mainly due to a 7% increase in admissions for family reunification. Most third-country nationals admitted to France for permanent residence in 2012 came from Africa (61%), mainly from Algeria (25 000 persons), Morocco (20 200 persons) and Tunisia (12 000 persons). Asia was the second most important region of origin (21%) led by China (7 200 persons) and Turkey (6 100 persons).
