transmigrant
One crossing borders
A transmigrant is a person passing through one country on the way to another where they intend to settle.
The term emphasizes the transitional status—neither tourist nor permanent resident, but someone in motion between homelands.
In anthropology, transmigrant describes people who maintain active connections across national borders, living between two countries rather than fully assimilating into one.
