Immigration Policy

Immigration policy refers to the set of laws, regulations, and practices that a government establishes to manage the flow of people entering and residing in a country. This policy outlines the criteria for who may enter, stay, or become a citizen of the country, and it often includes provisions related to visas, refugee admissions, border control, and deportation processes. Immigration policy can vary significantly between countries and may reflect social, economic, and political goals, such as labor market needs, demographic considerations, national security concerns, and humanitarian obligations. It plays a crucial role in shaping the multicultural fabric of a nation and addressing challenges related to migration, including integration and social cohesion.
