Immigration is the international movement of people to a destination country of which they are not usual residents or where they do not possess nationality in order to settle as permanent residents. It excludes short-term stays such as tourism and commuting, though seasonal labor is sometimes included. Immigration is a major driver of demographic, economic, and cultural change globally.
