Note:

Further to consultations with our customers, it has been decided that the tables within the Migration between Scotland and the Rest of the UK section will only be published on an annual basis.

Background

Migration between Scotland and the rest of the UK refers to people moving between Scotland and England, Wales or Northern Ireland.

The main source of data used to produce National Records of Scotland (NRS) estimates of this sort of migration is GP registration information. More information on how these migration estimates are derived can be found in the Methodology section.
