This chapter provides an overview of recent developments in international migration movements and policies in OECD countries. First section analyses the shock to migration from COVID‑19 based on preliminary data for the first semester of 2020. A detailed analysis of the trends in permanent migration from 2009 to 2019 follows, by country and by main category of migration – migration for work, family or humanitarian purposes, and migration within free movement areas. The next section addresses temporary migration for work purposes, including seasonal workers, intra-company transferees, posted workers, trainees and working holidaymakers. The chapter then examines international student mobility and the recent trends in asylum requests in OECD countries. It then looks at the composition of migration flows by gender and by country of origin, the evolution of the size of the foreign-born population, and trends in the acquisition of nationality across OECD countries. The chapter concludes with a section on policies concerning the main 2018‑20 changes made to migration management frameworks.
