Asylum applications, publication of 21 January 2021

Description

In 2020, there were 81,669 first applications (- 41.0 %) and 11,757 reviews (- 8.6 %), submitted within the Single Asylum Applications (GUDA), as well as 22,462 requests made outside the GUDA. Such a decline is explained by the COVID-19 health crisis and, more specifically, the impact of lockdowns on GUDA activity and on the movement of foreigners. In 2020, 95 584 asylum applications were registered at OFPRA, a decrease of 28.0 % compared to 2019. The decline in decisions taken was slightly less (-26.6 %) with 70,036 decisions, excluding accompanying minors. However, the number of agreement decisions recorded a sharper decline (by 37.8 % compared to 2019), with the OFPRA taking 13,864, compared to 22,295 in 2019. In 2020, the National Asylum Court (CNDA) delivered 42 025 decisions, i.e. -36.8 % compared to 2019, including 10 254 annulments, compared to 13,980 in 2019. In total, the number of decisions to grant protection status (refugee and subsidiary protection, excluding accompanying minors) taken by OFPRA and CNDA stood at 24,118 in 2020, a decrease of 33.5 % compared to 2019.
