Statistics Belgium makes a distinction between internal migration (moving within Belgium) and international migration (moving to or from Belgium); the statistic displayed above shows the numbers for international migration. The numbers for international migration are divided into immigration and emigration. Data for immigration consists of the numbers for people moving to Belgium, people who change register in Belgium, and people who are re-inscribed. The numbers for emigration consists of the data for people moving out of Belgium, people changing register outside of Belgium, and people who are officially removed from the register.
Belgium is divided into 3 regions: the Flemish Region, the Brussels-Capital Region and the Walloon Region. Each region has its own Regional Parliament and a Regional Government.
The statistic displayed above shows the migration flow for Belgium in 2022, by region. In 2022, about 52,500 people migrated to Brussels, while approximately 16,000 migrated from Brussels.
