In Minecraft Bedrock Edition (Survival Mode), villagers do not teleport from the Nether to the Overworld through a Nether portal. I have tried multiple methods, including:
- Pushing the villager into the portal
- Using a boat to transport them through the portal
- Ensuring a valid Overworld portal exists
- Reloading the world and restarting the game
Other mobs (like pigs and zombified piglins) teleport normally, but villagers remain stuck in the Nether. This might be a bug, as similar issues have been reported before.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Place a Nether portal in the Nether.
2. Push a villager into the portal.
3. Check if they appear in the Overworld.
Expected result: The villager should appear at the corresponding Overworld portal.
Actual result: The villager stays in the Nether and does not teleport.
Please investigate this issue. Thank you!

Does MCPE-166172 describe your issue?
Does it work if you travel through the portal first?
Since you said this has been reported before, what are the IDs of those reports?

"MCPE-166172 is somewhat similar to my issue. The main difference is that their report mentions multiple mobs having trouble teleporting from the Nether to the Overworld, whereas I have at least seen a piglin successfully make it through once. I’ve also tried going through the portal first to see if that helps, but it doesn’t work either.
As for other reports, I haven’t found many here. However, I may have phrased my previous message incorrectly—I have seen discussions about this issue on Reddit threads."
Let me know if you’d like any further refinements.
I remember 1st encountering this around 1.18-1.19.
