Decisions on Asylum Applications

This section provides data on the decisions on the applications for international protection.

The categorization of asylum decisions involves both first and second instances. The first instance decisions are issued by the Greek Asylum Service. The second instance decisions (or final) are decisions on appeals, issued by the Greek Appeals Authority.

MEDMA employs Eurostat datasets to ensure comparability across these levels. For a more granular understanding of decision subcategories, you can scroll down over the presentation below. If you wish to skip that part, you may click on the Page Contents on the left.
