The objective of this paper is to analyze qualitatively the main reasons and causes of migration flows from China to the state of Puebla in the last 15 years. China has become one of the major trading partners of our country and the Chinese population in Mexico is one of the migrant communities with higher growth; recently, the state of Puebla has become one of the main destinations of Chinese migrations either legal or undocumented. Through an application based on survey analysis, this article examines the main causes and origins of migration flows from China to the state of Puebla in three different levels of analysis: micro, meso and macro. Analysis aims to establish possible migration trends from China to Puebla in the upcoming years. An analysis of the migration flows from China to Puebla will contribute to a better understanding of this transitory process (south-south to north-south) and take a broader view of the reasons for this transnational phenomenon.
