Germany, the UK, France and Italy make up majority of Europe’s unauthorized immigrant population

While each of the 32 nations in the EU and EFTA had some unauthorized immigrants in 2017,

the largest numbers

were in Germany

and the United Kingdom, amounting to about half of Europe’s total.

Substantial shares also lived in Italy and France.

Together, these four countries

were home to more than two-thirds (70%) of Europe’s unauthorized immigrants.

By comparison, Germany, the UK, Italy and France accounted for slightly more than half of Europe’s total population in 2017.
