Abstract

The purpose of the article is to study the theoretical and practical principles  of using modern digital technologies in international migration processes. The article is devoted to the consideration of modern trends in the use of digital technologies for the establishment of  international migration management processes. The most relevant digital opportunities in the field of international migration, features of the use of certain digital technologies in the processes of international migration, examples of their possible practical application are determined. Possible challenges of organizing migration processes related to the development of digital technologies are considered.The authors came to the conclusion that digitalization, digitization and datafication significantly change approaches to migration management in different directions and components. The following areas of application of digital technologies in this area are most relevant: digital border crossing technologies; digitalization of application submission processes; use  of video conferences for remote interviews; the use of artificial  intelligence to facilitate the decision-making process; use of blockchain technology; opportunities for migrants to use social, financial and other  digital technologies of the host country and the country of origin; virtual  migration.Related challenges make it necessary to develop approaches to data protection, verification of their authenticity, etc. These processes willcontinue to improve and transform at an accelerated pace. Progressive international migration management systems with the use of  digital technologies will significantly improve the interaction between  countries of origin and countries of residence of migrants, will ensure the  comfort of adaptation to the new environment for migrants with the use of  digital tools.
