Transit migration (seldom permigration , outdated migration ) is the migration ( migration ) of migrants (also called transit migrants ) from one territory through another to a third. As a rule, this means states. If refugees move from one EU member state to another, this is referred to as secondary migration .

Transit states are used for temporary residence during the transition from the country of origin to the country of destination.

Examples are:

• Migrants from Africa to Northern Europe: Africans cross over to Southern Europe and then immigrate to the more northern European countries. Transmigration through West Africa towards the EU's external borders , in particular across the Mediterranean to Northern Europe (see also Immigration to the EU via the Mediterranean ). Several hundred transit migrants pass through Calais every year on their way to Great Britain (see Early border controls on the English Channel ).

• Migration of refugees from Syria through Greece and Turkey to Northern Europe, cf. Civil War in Syria # Refugees Immigration of refugees to Greece

• United States-Mexico Border : The number of illegal immigrants from Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Ecuador is estimated at 350,000 annually.
