In which countries can stateless persons apply for refugees, in which countries can they easily obtain refugee status and in which countries can they easily obtain the right of abode?

Whether you can apply for political asylum in Germany and obtain refugee status or whether you will be recognized as a refugee depends on which country the applicant comes from. In a word, applicants from three countries are the easiest to obtain refugee status.

Applicants from Syria are most likely to obtain refugee status in Germany. The German Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF) uses the "asylum allocation quota". In other words, the country from which the refugee applicant comes will receive the corresponding quota. Applicants from these countries can obtain refugee status or "tolerant residence" for other reasons. The success rate of Syrian refugee applicants is almost 100%. Refugee applicants who fled from refugee camps in Lebanon and other countries to Germany can obtain residence permits directly without going through the approval process. Germany did this for humanitarian reasons, but this residence permit is time-limited.

Iraqis can also easily obtain refugee status. According to the statistics of the Federal Immigration and Refugee Administration, almost 90% of applicants can obtain political asylum. In addition, the Eritrean government adopts extreme rule, and about 80% of refugee applicants from this country can be granted asylum.

Theoretically, Syrians, Eritreans, Christians, Mandas people and yazdi people from Iraq no longer need to ask special questions and state the reasons for their exile, but only need to make written statements, which can also speed up the process of approving refugee status.

However, if the identity of the refugee applicant is "suspicious and this suspicion is justified", or the approval procedures for refugee applications are handled by other countries, or the nature of the refugees cannot be confirmed, the application in the above circumstances will not be approved.

The possibility of asylum for refugee applicants from the second category countries is "neutral". Applicants from these countries must provide evidence for their refugee applications. Even if there is political persecution or instability in the country where these applicants come from, it is not natural for them to come to Germany to obtain refugee status from such a country. Afghanistan, for example, falls into this category. The proportion of Afghan refugee applicants receiving asylum is about 40%, Pakistan is close to 12%, and Nigeria is 6%. There are also some countries where the number of refugee applicants is very small, which is not statistically obvious.

Refugee applicants from the Balkans to Germany have little hope of obtaining refugee status. Nevertheless, the number of applicants from this area is quite amazing. Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro and Serbia belong to this category. The German Federal Government has just listed Serbia, Macedonia and Bosnia as "safe countries". According to the provisions of the German refugee approval law, "from the basic political situation, there is no political persecution in these areas, and there is no inhuman or low-level shameful punishment." Germany's CDU and CSU demanded that Kosovo, Albania and Montenegro also be listed as "safe countries". However, the objection is that Roma are persecuted in these countries, so these countries cannot be classified as "safe countries".

Every member state of the European Union has its own laws and regulations. The European Commission is now considering proposing a list of "safe countries" to EU countries. In addition to countries considering joining the European Union and the six Balkan countries, Turkey is also on this list. Jean-Claude Juncker, President of the European Commission, stressed that, however, applicants from these countries cannot be fundamentally deprived of their right to apply. In other words, refugee applicants from these countries can also obtain political asylum if they can provide convincing evidence to prove that they are indeed persecuted. But in general, applicants from these countries are more likely to be repatriated than to be granted refugee status.

In addition, Ghana and Senegal are also listed as "safe countries" by the German Federal Office for Migration and Refugees. The European Commission is also considering including African countries in the EU list.
