Original Note:
Per the Book of Luke, Joseph and Mary were traveling under orders of Caesar Augustus that all Roman citizens report to their hometowns for a census. Their temporary presence in Bethlehem was neither migration nor illegal entry into the Empire, as they traveled per Roman law. https://biblehub.com/niv/luke/2.htm
