What other (industrialized) countries within the world has a major problem with illegal immigration?

Question

Any other (industrialized) countries within the world, besides the U.S., that have a major illegal immigration problem to the extent of the U.S. or worse, or even somewhat close to it?

Answer 1

You know i don't know if the following is "illegal", but i know the following countries for sure are having problems with immigrants.
Switzerland
France
Germany
Belgium
Denmark
Those are the ones i know for sure that have immigrant problems. I don't know if this helps.

Answer 2

Not to the extent, because the US has this enormous, mostly undefended, border with Mexico. For example, there are somewhere between 12 and 20 million Mexican living illegally in the US, but only about 5000 Guatemalans living illegally in Mexico. The border between Mexico and Guatemala is small, mountainous, and defended.

The border between the US and Canada is also long and mostly undefended, but Canada has an reasonable economy and job situation, and there isn't much reason for a Canadian to stay illegally in the US.

But many European nations have illegal immigrant problems. England, France, Italy, and Spain do. Most of the illegal immigrants come from Africa. Italy and Spain's mostly come from sub-Saharan Africa, and France's mostly come from northern Africa..

Answer 3

Spain, Germany, Australia. Virtually all so-called first world nations.
