Research

We research how many people come and go from New Zealand, the reason for their visits and, if they come as residents, how well they settle in New Zealand.

  • Migration trends report

    Migration Trends report is an annual report that examines trends in temporary and permanent migration to and from New Zealand. This report lives on the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment website.

    Country of Origin Information (COI) research helps answer questions about the political, social, cultural, economic and human rights situations in countries of origin.

  • Recognised Seasonal Employer scheme research

    The Recognised Seasonal Employer (RSE) scheme allows the horticulture and viticulture industries to recruit workers from overseas for seasonal work when there are not enough New Zealand workers. Find research that relates to the RSE scheme.
