This is just simple headcanon here, but I think it's one or two possibilities.
1.) All people. Yay! Everyone can move to Ishgard and things will be like it was in the past before they closed their doors.
2.) Only adventurers. AKA every player character. But not the average schmo.
I think the former makes sense more to me because in my headcanon, I just can't see the devs allowing only the WoL and his party in when the whole idea of the expansion is opening up an entire new part of the country to a swath of adventurers, which is how the devs portray the players running around. Maybe it'll be a slow and gradual process, as any wave of immigrants in a country creates... issues. But yeah.
They also said in the Live Letter: "Since we have added Ishgard to the city-states, there will be a market-board here as well."

Around 8:36.
So in my head-canon, I reason that... if they're opening the market in Ishgard, then that must also mean trade is going to commence between the North and elsewhere now.
So that's just my opinion on it.
