What Is Added By This Report?: The prevalence of migrants among newly reported HIV-positive MSM in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region increased from 2005 to 2021. Yulin Prefecture had the highest proportion of out-migrant MSM (12.6%), while Nanning Prefecture had the highest proportion of in-migrant MSM (55.9%). Risk factors associated with migration among MSM included being in the 18-24 age range, having a college education or higher, and being a student.
