Abstract enInternational migration outflows from Eastern and Central European countries increased since accession in 2004, but previously regular patterns, directions have changed in the last years. Western European countries labor markets experienced changes too, e. g. the unexpectedly low number of emigration to Germany last year. My aim is to interpret current international migration in the EU on the basis of economic and structural labor market differences and reveal that institutional circumstances and micro level became indispensable factor beside. The growing role of the UK for Eastern and Central European countries migrants can be interpreted by the earlier opened labor markets and the exceeding English language knowledge in these countries. In Hungary, the deficiency of the registration also causes problems for science and policy as migration reached more than fifteenth of the official number getting data from mirror statistics. For a better understanding, statistical data of migration outflows and inflows is analyzed side by side just like demographic and social composition of emigrants. The results clearly show how far new factors role has grown in emerging migration flows in an east-west direction within the EU.
