The Federal Office for Migration and Refugees BAMF published a brief analysis looking at the socio-demographic composition and residence status of refugees admitted to Germany via humanitarian admission from Türkiye (HAP TUR) or resettlement (RST).
The following observations were made in the brief analysis:
- Compared to asylum applicants, the resettlement and humanitarian admission brought more women, children and persons older than the age of 50 to Germany.
- 96.4 % came as part of a family unit and most of them had relatives in Germany.
- Around 80% of the refugees obtained a residence permit within six months.
The evaluations are based on registered data of 28,794 refugees from the Humanitarian Admission and Resettlement Procedure and the Central Register of Foreigners. They cover admissions between May 2016 and May 2024.
The humanitarian admission from Türkiye (HAP TUR) and resettlement (RST) have been suspended since May 2025.
