Abstract
Immigration significantly influences the European labor market, fiscal revenue, and GDP. Immigrants contribute to the labor force by filling skill gaps, addressing labor shortages, and fostering innovation. They also strengthen fiscal revenue through taxes and social contributions. Additionally, immigration positively affects GDP growth, as increased consumption stimulates investment, enhances productivity, and boosts labor market competitiveness. Ultimately, the extent of these economic benefits depends on the host country’s approach to labor market and economic integration.
