Asylum and Refugee Status
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 have a right to asylum according to the German Constitution (Art. 16a Grundgesetz)
- there must be ordered a ban on deportation.
There are many reasons for refusal of asylum applications:
- Germany may not be responsible for the asylum procedure according to the Dublin III Regulation
- Another “safe” country has already been granted a residence status
- Lack of danger in the country of origin
- Your persecution story is not believed.
Even after a protection status has been granted in Germany, it can be withdrawn, for example because circumstances in the home country have changed.
