Welcome to Issue #6 of Immigration Insights, spotlighting the immigration developments that defined Q4 2025. Immigration systems worldwide are becoming more digital, more selective, and more tightly enforced. Governments are embedding technology across the immigration lifecycle, raising compliance expectations for employers while narrowing access to mobility pathways. At the same time, localization requirements, higher thresholds, and rising costs are reshaping workforce planning assumptions.
Governments are balancing stricter oversight with pragmatism, using temporary concessions to manage backlogs and maintain workforce continuity—while regional mobility regimes continue to diverge in response to geopolitical and security priorities.
Explore Issue #6 for a closer look at the global, regional, and country-specific developments shaping workforce mobility and immigration strategy.
