The international migration of qualified human resources is one of the pillars of immigration governance. Immigration policies set instruments for organizing and managing the human resources to attract skilled workers and international students in a context of global competitiveness. The main component influencing the dynamics of international migration flows to Japan is the transnational labor market of skilled resources, as well as the mechanisms that shape it. The objective of this paper is to describe the socioeconomic factors that shape, drive, and lend context to the mobility of skilled workers. The main question to answer would be: What are the characteristics of the main factors shaping migration flows between Mexico and Japan?

Keywords : Skilled migration; geographic mobility; human resources; socioeconomic factors; labor markets; migration policy.
