Number of immigrants in Indonesia from 1990 to 2020
(in 1,000s)
The estimated number of international immigrants in the middle of the indicated year generally represents the number of persons born in a country other than where they live.
When data on the place of birth are unavailable, the number of non-citizens is used as a proxy for the number of international immigrants. The foreign population includes refugees, some of whom may not be foreign-born.
The mid-year 2020 population estimates were derived under the assumption that there was no increase or decrease in the number of international migrants between 1 March and 1 July, 2020, namely during the last four months of the estimation period.
