4.14.1. Granting international protection: Recognition rates

icon for recongnition rates in international protection
 

The recognition rate refers to the number of positive outcomes as a percentage of the total number of decisions on applications for international protection. For reporting in the Asylum Report, positive decisions calculated in the recognition rate include EU-harmonised statuses only (e.g. refugee and subsidiary protection). At times, the recognition rate which includes national forms of protection may be presented for countries where there is a considerable difference with the recognition rate of EU-harmonised statuses.xiv

The recognition rate for specific nationalities of applicants can indicate which citizenships are granted protection more frequently and which are rejected.
