Asylum procedure

Asylum procedure

When you apply for asylum, the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF) checks whether

    • you are granted international protection (refugee status or subsidiary protection),
    • you are entitled to asylum under the Basic Law,
    • Deportation bans exist.

The reasons for rejecting asylum applications are manifold:

    • Germany is not responsible for the asylum procedure under the Dublin III Regulation
    • You have already been granted residence status in another safe country
    • Lack of danger in the country of origin
    • Their fate of persecution is not believed.

Even after protection status has been granted in Germany, it can be withdrawn again, for example because circumstances in the home country have changed.
