Immigration Statistics: admissions

This release replaces the previous annual and quarterly publications Control of Immigration Statistics and the annual British Citizenship, following a public consultation. Each topic now has its own entry, links to these related reports can be found under the "additional links" section.

The figures show the number of journeys made by persons entering the United Kingdom. Where an individual enters the country more than once, each arrival is counted. For passengers subject to immigration control arriving who have previously obtained leave to enter, the journey is recorded as ‘returning after a temporary absence abroad’. Due to the volume of passengers arriving at Heathrow and Gatwick some data are estimated from monthly samples.

本版发布替换了先前年度及季度发布的《移民统计控制》和年度《英国公民身份》报告，此变更基于公众咨询的结果。每个主题现在均拥有独立条目，相关报告的链接可在“附加链接”部分查找到。

统计数据展示了进入英国的个人旅程数量。若个人多次入境，每次抵达均予以计数。对于此前已获得入境许可并受移民管制抵达的乘客，其旅程记录为‘海外临时缺席后返回’。由于希思罗机场和盖特威克机场抵达乘客数量庞大，部分数据基于月度样本进行估算。
