摘要
This paper investigates the impact of migrant integration policies set by destination countries on migration from 202 origins to 27 destinations during the period 2010-2018. Employing a structural gravity methodology which features international and domestic (i.e., intra-national) migration flows, it shows that migrant integration policies, on average, positively affect cross-border migration relative to domestic migration. Moving from the 25(th) percentile to the median of the variable summarizing migrant integration policies increases cross-border relative to domestic migration by one third. Such impact is largely driven by policies on family reunion and permanent residence.
