Statistical tables of international migration are subject to many more difficulties than are tables on population, vital statistics and most other demographic subjects. These difficulties are due to the absence of a uniform and r practical definition of the term migrant in the statistical returns of the various countries. Also the practical problems to be solved in collecting adequate statistics of migrants are many. Fundamentally, migrants must be distinguished from all other travellers crossing international borders; and in most cases, the distinction can only be made on the basis of declared intention regarding ( length of stay, exercise of an occupation, etc.
