Summary:

This paper presents a methodology to estimate international migration flows from Colombia using data from the administrative border control register maintained by the government agency responsible for monitoring migration (Migración Colombia). The study, with a scope of 41,766,428 international trips, looked at sociodemographic and administrative data on passengers travelling in or out of Colombia from 2004 to 2010. The National Administrative Department of Statistics (DANE) used that data to reconstruct the travel itineraries of 9,584,315 people and then to determine their migration status using various calculation algorithms tailored to the United Nations definition of migration. The subjects discussed in this paper include the database and the different various aspects of the methodology used, the reconstruction of migration flows and their characteristics and the relationship between international travel and migration. An assessment is also made of the reliability of the method of estimation using the migration flows recorded in other countries.
