В данном издании особое внимание уделяется использованию переписей населения и жилищного фонда в качестве источника информации, так как данные по статистике международной миграции может быть получены и из других источников информации, таких как регистры населения, административные источники и выборочные обследования. Хотя гармонизация статистики миграции остается далекой целью, подавляющее большинство стран мира проводят перепись населения и жилищного фонда не реже одного раза в десять лет, и переписи населения являются наиболее доступным источником статистики миграции. Данные переписей позволяют оценивать количество мигрантов и потоки мигрантов сопоставимым на международном уровне образом путем включения в переписной лист нескольких вопросов.

В настоящем руководстве также предпринимаются попытки сделать его как можно более всеобъемлющим, не перегружая читателя чрезмерными подробностями, но в то же время отражая нынешнюю практику сбора и подготовки статистических данных о международной миграции. Поэтому там, где это уместно, приводятся примеры страновой практики, иллюстрирующие обсуждаемые вопросы и способствующие легкому применению рекомендаций на страновом уровне. Ожидается, что данный опыт будет широко использоваться специалистами по подготовке данных, экспертами по переписям и специалистами по тематике миграции населения.

Публикация состоит из девяти глав. Издание начинается с введения концепции и определений международной миграции, применяемых для статистического измерения.

В приложении к справочнику содержится подробная информация о том, как можно оценить чистый коэффициент миграции с помощью переписей населения.
