Immigration statistics data tables, year ending March 2021

Listing of the data tables included in 'Immigration statistics, year ending March 2021'.

The Home Office has changed the format of the published data tables for a number of areas (asylum and resettlement, entry clearance visas, extensions, citizenship, returns, detention, and sponsorship). These now include summary tables, and more detailed datasets (available on a separate page, link below). A list of all available datasets on a given topic can be found in the ‘Contents’ sheet in the ‘summary’ tables. Information on where to find historic data in the ‘old’ format is in the ‘Notes’ page of the ‘summary’ tables.

The Home Office intends to make these changes in other areas in the coming publications. If you have any feedback, please email MigrationStatsEnquiries@homeoffice.gov.uk.

  1. Updated 'Asylum and resettlement summary tables, year ending March 2021'. The figures in table Asy_07b of the asylum summary tables for Section 98 for the years ending March 2020 and March 2021 were incorrectly shown as the figures for Section 4, and vice-versa. This table has been updated to show the correct figures for Section 98 and Section 4 for these time periods. Figures for previous years were unaffected.
