Metadata
Note The reference year corresponds to the fiscal year (from the 1st of July to June 30th of the year indicated). The numbers indicated correspond to overseas migrant arrivals (immigrants) are incoming international travellers who stay in Australia for 12 months or more over a 16-month period, who are not currently counted within the population, and are then added to Australia's population.
On 08/05/2025, the OEm changed its data source from the Department of Immigration and Citizenship to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, which led to a revision of the series values.
