According to population indicators manager Tehseen Islam, the net loss of people leaving New Zealand for Australia in 2023 was nearly double the 14,600 in 2022.
The net migration loss for 2023 was made up of 44,500 migrant departures across the ditch and 17,500 arrivals from Australia.
"However, it should be noted that this is below the record loss of 43,700 in the March 2012 year," Islam said.
He also said that "traditionally", New Zealand has seen net migration loss to Australia, averaging around 30,000 a year during 2004–2013 and 3,000 a year during 2014–2019.
"The annual record for migrant departures to Australia was 62,800 in the June 2012 year," Islam said.
According to the data, Kiwis heading to Australia were the "main driver" of trans-Tasman migration in 2023, “reflecting a long-standing historical pattern".
Last year, people with New Zealand passports made up 84% of the departures to Australia. They also made up 61% of those arriving from Australia.
NZ citizens leaving
===============
For the year ended May 2024, New Zealand's net migration figure was 82,800.
There was net gain of nearly 143,000 non-NZ citizens.
There was a net migration loss of 60,100 NZ citizens - with 85,600 departing and 25,500 returning.
That departure of NZ citizens was a new record, as was the net migration loss, Stats NZ said.
International departures 'highest on record'
===================================
Looking at migration in general, Stats NZ said New Zealand saw 138,600 migrant departures in the May 2024 year, which is provisionally "the highest on record for any annual period".
Migrant arrivals were 221,400.
For migrant arrivals in May 2024, the largest group were citizens of India at 46,400. This was followed by citizens of the Philippines (28,600), New Zealand (25,500), China (23,500), Fiji (9800), South Africa (7000), Sri Lanka (6600), and the United Kingdom (6300).
For departures, the largest group was New Zealand citizens with 85,600 leaving. This was followed by citizens from China (7900), the UK (5700), Australia (5200), India (4300) and the United States (3500).
