Macroeconomic determinants of immigration are analysed with pooled cross‐country and time series data on net immigration to Germany from European countries during 1964‐1988. Results demonstrate clearly that both high and low frequency determinants have been important. Long run trends are determined by the degree and speed of per capita income convergence between the sending and receiving countries, while year‐to‐year changes in net immigration flows are dominated by cyclical economic conditions
