Proposed Bills on the Deportation of International Protection Applicants

September 12, 2025

New proposed legislations expedite the deportation of third-country nationals whose applications for international protection are rejected. Applicants will have only ten days to appeal to the court after their application is denied. This timeframe is deemed insufficient by two organizations, as it does not allow enough time for submitting appeals. The proposals are also related to the revocation of international protection status in cases of serious crimes. The discussion of the legislation raised disagreements from various stakeholders, including the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.
