Where are you going to seek asylum?

Chose
your country of asylum also according the recognition rates and
the return policy for your country of origin.
Many times refugees can only flee to one country
and have no other choice. But if you have a choice between
different countries, be aware that recognition rates vary enormously
even between asylum countries on the same continent. As a consequence,
an asylum seeker risks to be returned to his country of origin
when he applies in one country though he might have been recognised
as refugee in another country ”next door”. Chances
for recognition differ between less than one percent and more
than 90 % for the same country of origin! Please read Chances
and statistics.
In some cases, countries of asylum do not recognise asylum seekers
from a certain country of origin, but grant another status or just do
not send them back. If you do not have reliable information on the return
policy of a certain targeted asylum country, be aware of the risk of
forcible return. You might address refugee-assisting organisations in
various asylum countries using the pull down menu in order to be informed
on the recognition and return practice for people of your origin. The
statistics referred to in our section ”Chances
and statistics” sometimes considers other forms of protection
as well.
