COMMON ANALYSIS
Last update: April 2024
While the conclusions under this common analysis could provide general guidance, the protection needs of each applicant should be examined individually. The non-exhaustive lists of examples with regard to sub-profiles at a differentiated risk and to circumstances, which would normally increase or decrease the risk, are to be taken into account in light of all circumstances in the individual case.
The individual applicant could fall under more than one profile included in this common analysis. The protection needs associated with all such circumstances should be fully examined.
The considerations under each profile should, furthermore, be viewed without prejudice to the credibility assessment of the applicant’s claims. This common analysis deals solely with issues of risk analysis and qualification.
For more guidance on how to read the following subsections, please refer 'Country Guidance: explained': Refugee status.
For each profile, and in some cases, for the relevant sub-profiles, the sections below provide:
- COI summary: outline of the factual basis of the analysis and the main elements taken into account when reaching the respective assessment of protection needs.
- Conclusions and guidance: The conclusions and guidance are structured within three subsequent parts.
