Migration figures are adjusted
The Gazette
|November 19, 2025
NET migration to the UK in recent years peaked at a higher level than initially estimated and has since fallen more sharply, new figures show.
-
Improved methods by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) suggest net migration hit a higher and slightly earlier peak of 944,000 in the year ending March 2023, compared with the previous estimate of 906,000 for the year ending June 2023.
This was followed by a sharper fall than initially reported, with net migration in the year ending December 2024 now estimated to be 345,000, lower than the original estimate of 431,000 that was published by the ONS in May this year.
