In 2024, Sweden experienced a net migration gain of 29,700 people, surpassing the previous year's 21,000, according to Statistics Sweden. This growth was attributed largely to immigration, yet the year also marked a decline in birth rates, with the fewest children born in 22 years. Notably, 116,200 newcomers arrived, with many from Ukraine, resulting from changes in EU regulations regarding temporary protection. Conversely, 86,400 people left Sweden, a significant increase from 2023, and many departures were to 'unknown countries' due to de-registration processes.
In 2024, Sweden's population grew by 0.3% with 29,700 more people arriving than departing, indicating a significant immigration trend despite fewer births.
