Establishing Identity for International Protection : Challenges and Practices

This Synthesis Report presents the main findings of the second EMN Focussed Study “Establishing Identity for International Protection: Challenges and Practices”. The aim of the study is to provide an overview of important challenges facing national authorities in their efforts to establish, in the absence of credible documentation, the identity of applicants for international protection (i.e. asylum and subsidiary protection) and for the return of rejected applicants. It also aims to draw together an overview of national practices in handling these challenges, while allowing for the identification of possible steps towards further (joint) actions.
