Immigration Control

Immigration control refers to the laws and policies that govern the entry and stay of non-citizens in a country. It includes procedures for visas, border security, and the rights of migrants. Countries implement immigration control to manage how many people can enter, for what reasons (such as work, asylum, or education), and to ensure national security and public health. Effective immigration control promotes lawful migration, protects jobs for citizens, and helps integrate newcomers while addressing challenges like illegal immigration and humanitarian needs. Each country’s approach varies based on its circumstances and values.
