Based on statistical data and mathematical calculations it introduces an evaluation system of economic benefits from immigration in V4 regional labour markets as well as the selected macro-economic indicators as introduced. Moreover, it shows the saved costs on education and profession preparation of such labour force and the incomes from GDP or VAT produced by immigrants. In conclusion, it evaluates the balance of benefits and shows a further profit from saved costs on health and social care, childcare while preparing for a profession, incomes from income and consumption taxes, but also payments to social and health insurance agencies from immigrant salaries. A crucial benefit from labour force immigration is that it has a significant development potential in both the economy and society.
