In the Cabinet of Georgeland, the Minister for Immigration and Border Control is the government minister responsible for border protection, customs, visas and migration policy. The Minister overseas the Georgeland Customs Service eorgeland Customs Service, the Georgeland Immigration Service, and the United Islands Coast Guard.

The position was established in 1970, and was elevated to Cabinet in 1983. For most of its portfolio, the department was known as Immigration and Ethnic Affairs. The first Minister for Immigration was Vince Gooch, who was instrumental in the relaxation of Georgeland's post-war  restrictions on non-white immigrants.

Prior to 1970, immigration matters were handled by one of a number of ministers, most notably the Minister for Home Affairs. The customs and tariff elements of the position were mostly handled by the Minister for Customs, a position which became part of the Department of Trade in 2007. Briefly in 1995 and again from 2004 to 2010, the portfolio was again outside Cabinet.

The incumbent Minister for Immigration and Border Control is the Hon. Senator Neil Hassan of the Georgeland Alliance.
