Statistical Yearbook 2015
The 2015 Statistical Yearbook was produced under the auspices of UNHCR’s Division of Programme Support and Management, Field Information and Coordination Support Section. The Yearbook could not have been prepared without the commitment and support of national and international staff in UNHCR offices around the world, and without the cooperation of relevant national administrative bodies. Unless specified otherwise, the 2015 Statistical Yearbook does not refer to events occurring after 31 December 2015. The designations employed and the presentation of country or area names, including in maps and country listings, do not imply the expression of any opinion whatsoever on the part of UNHCR concerning the legal status of any country, territory, city or area of its authorities, or the delimitation of its frontiers or boundaries.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The 2015 edition of the United Nations Statistical Yearbook is the 15th issue of this publication, prepared by the Field Information and Coordination Support Section (FICSS), of the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR). The contents of the Yearbook have been reviewed and the data presented increased with the technical articles replaced by the “UNHCR Statistics Technical Series”1. Further reviews are expected to be introduced in future editions. Please send any comments or views to our email address, [email protected].
OBJECTIVE AND CONTENT OF THE STATISTICAL YEARBOOK
The main purpose of the Statistical Yearbook is to provide in a single volume a comprehensive compilation of internationally available statistics and data on the population falling under UNHCR’s mandate, at world, regional and national levels, with special focus on developments occurring during 2015 unless otherwise stated. As such, the Yearbook provides the official statistics of UNHCR. Figures reported in this publication have been carefully evaluated and reviewed. Data sources and methodologies have also been verified to ensure that they conform to the requisite standards of UNHCR’s statistics.
The tables in this Yearbook include data series covering, depending upon data availability (as of 31 December 2015) and space constraints, as many countries, territories and statistical areas of the
world as available and provide detailed data for 2015. Statistical data on historical trends, allowing for easy global comparisons by region and country for all major themes, can be found on UNHCR’s statistical website (www. unhcr.org/statistics). These data can also be downloaded from UNHCR’s Statistical Online Population Database, at popstats.unhcr.org.
Statistics reflected in this Yearbook are, for the most part, those reported by UNHCR country offices, drawn either from their own data or those of the government. The use of estimates is clearly indicated. Some data contained in this publication may differ from those published earlier, due to retroactive adjustments or the inclusion of previously unavailable data. It is expected that the data contained in the 2015 Yearbook will likewise be subject to minor future adjustments. ■

INTRODUCTION
Refugees include individuals recognized under the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees and its 1967 Protocol, persons recognized under the 1969 Organization of African Unity (OAU) Convention Governing the Specific Aspects of Refugee Problems in Africa, those recognized in accordance with the UNHCR Statute, individuals granted complementary forms of protection,2 and those enjoying temporary protection.3 The refugee category also includes persons in a refugee-like situation.4
Asylum-seekers (with ‘pending cases’) are individuals who have sought international protection and whose claims for refugee status have not yet been determined. Those covered in this report refer to claimants whose individual applications were pending as of 30 June 2016, irrespective of when those claims may have been lodged.
Internally displaced persons are persons or groups of persons who have been forced to leave their home or place of habitual residence, in particular as a result of or in order to avoid the effects of armed conflict, situations of generalized violence, violations of human rights, or natural or man-made disasters, and who have not crossed an international border.5 For the purposes of UNHCR’s statistics, this population includes only conflict-generated IDPs to whom the Office extends protection and/or assistance. The IDP population also includes individuals in an IDP-like situation.6
Returned refugees (returnees) are former refugees who have returned to their country of origin, either spontaneously or in an organized fashion, but are yet to be fully integrated. Such returns would normally take place only under conditions of safety and dignity. For the purposes of this report, only refugees who returned between January and June 2016 are included, though in practice operations may assist returnees for longer periods.
Returned IDPs refers to those IDPs who were beneficiaries of UNHCR’s protection and assistance activities, and who returned to their area of origin or habitual residence between January and June 2016. In practice, however, operations may assist IDP returnees for longer periods.
Persons under UNHCR’s statelessness mandate are defined under international law as those not considered as nationals by any State under the operation of its law. In other words, they do not possess the nationality of any State. UNHCR statistics refer to persons who fall under the agency’s statelessness mandate as those who are stateless according to this international definition, but data from some countries may also include persons with undetermined nationality.
UNHCR has been given a global mandate by the United Nations General Assembly to contribute to the prevention and reduction of statelessness and to the protection of stateless persons. The agency also performs a
specific function, under Article 11 of the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness, in receiving claims from persons who may benefit from the statelessness safeguards contained in that Convention, and in assisting both those individuals and the States concerned to resolve these claims.
Other groups or persons of concern refers to individuals who do not necessarily fall directly into any of these groups but to whom UNHCR has extended its protection and/or assistance services, based on humanitarian or other special grounds. ●
2 ‘Complementary protection’ refers to protection provided under national, regional, or international law to persons who do not qualify for protection under refugee law instruments but are in need of international protection because they are at risk of serious harm.
3 ‘Temporary protection’ refers to arrangements developed to offer protection of a temporary nature, either until the situation in the country of origin improves and allows for a safe and dignified return, or until individual refugee or complementary protection status determination can be carried out.
4 This term is descriptive in nature. It includes groups of people who are outside their country or territory of origin and who face protection risks similar to refugees but for whom refugee status has, for practical or other reasons, not been ascertained.
5 See: United Nations Commission on Human Rights, Report of the Representative of the Secretary-General, Mr. Francis M. Deng, submitted pursuant to Commission resolution 1997/39. Addendum: Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement, 11 February 1998.
6 This term is descriptive in nature. It includes groups who are inside their country of nationality or habitual residence and who face protection risks similar to IDPs but who, for practical or other reasons, could not be reported as such.

TABLE 1
NotesThe data are generally provided by Governments, based on their own definitions and methods of data collection.A dash (“-”) indicates that the value is zero, not available or not applicable. All data are provisional and subject to change.1 Country or territory of asylum or residence.2 Persons recognized as refugees under the 1951 UN Convention/1967 Protocol,
the 1969 OAU Convention, in accordance with the UNHCR Statute, persons granted a complementary form of protection and those granted temporary protection. In the absence of Government figures, UNHCR has estimated the refugee population in many industrialized countries based on 10 years of individual asylum-seeker recognition.
3 This category is descriptive in nature and includes groups of persons who are outside their country or territory of origin and who face protection risks similar to those of refugees, but for whom refugee status has, for practical or other reasons, not been ascertained.
4 Persons whose application for asylum or refugee status is pending at any stage in the asylum procedure.
5 Refugees who have returned to their place of origin during 2015. Source: country of origin and asylum.
6 Persons who are displaced within their country and to whom UNHCR extends protection and/or assistance. It also includes people in IDP-like situations. This category is descriptive in nature and includes groups of persons who are inside their country of nationality or habitual residence and who face protection risks similar to those of IDPs but who, for practical or other reasons, could not be reported as such.
7 IDPs protected/assisted by UNHCR who have returned to their place of origin during 2015.
8 Refers to persons who are not considered as nationals by any State under the operation of its law. This category refers to persons who fall under the agency’s statelessness mandate because they are stateless according to this international definition, but data from some countries may also include persons with undetermined nationality. See Annex Table 7 at http://www.unhcr.org/statistics/15-WRD-table-7.xls for detailed notes.
9 Refers to individuals who do not necessarily fall directly into any of the other groups but to whom UNHCR may extend its protection and/or assistance services. These activities might be based on humanitarian or other special grounds.
10 According to the Government of Algeria, there are an estimated 165,000 Sahrawi refugees in the Tindouf camps.
11 Australia’s figures for asylum-seekers are based on the number of applications lodged for protection visas.
12 The refugee population includes 200,000 persons originating from Myanmar in a refugee-like situation. The Government of Bangladesh estimates the population to be between 300,000 and 500,000.
13 The 300,000 Vietnamese refugees are well integrated and in practice receive protection from the Government of China.
14 UNHCR’s assistance activities for IDPs in Cyprus ended in 1999. Visit the website of the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC) for further information.
15 The number of Rwandan refugees in the Democratic Republic of the Congo is subject to change based on an ongoing registration exercise. The figure 245,000 was provided by the Government of Democratic Republic of the Congo.
16 This revised estimate of 133,770 stateless persons includes only individuals born in the country to parents who were both born abroad, It does not include individuals born in the country to one foreign-born and one Dominican-born parent, as per the previously reported figure of 210,000. This estimate does not include subsequent generations of individuals of foreign descent, as there is no reliable population data available on groups other than first-generation individuals. As such, this estimate does not include all persons without nationality in the country. It will be adjusted as official data becomes available on the number of individuals who have found an effective nationality solution.
17 All figures relate to the end of 2014 except refugees.18 Almost all people recorded as being stateless have permanent residence and
enjoy more rights than foreseen in the 1954 Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons.
19 Refugee figure relates to the end of 2014.20 Figure of stateless persons refers to individuals without a nationality who were
born in the Dominican Republic prior to January 2010 and who were identified by UNHCR in Haiti during the reporting period.
21 Pending a more accurate study into stateless in Iraq, the estimate of stateless persons in Iraq has been adjusted to reflect the reduction of statelessness in line with Law 26 of 2006, which allows stateless persons to apply for nationality in certain circumstances.
22 Figures are UNHCR estimates.23 Includes 33,200 Iraqi refugees registered with UNHCR in Jordan. The
Government estimated the number of Iraqis at 400,000 individuals at the end of March 2015. This includes refugees and other categories of Iraqis.
24 This figure includes persons covered by two separate Laws. 178 fall under the Republic of Latvia’s Law on Stateless Persons on 17 February 2004, which replaced the Law on the Status of Stateless Persons in the Republic of Latvia of 18 February 1999, and which determines the legal status of persons who are not considered as citizens by the legislation of any State and whose status is not determined by the 25th April 1995 Law (quoted below). 252,017 of the persons reported in this table fall under the Republic of Latvia’s 25 April 1995 Law on the Status of Those Former USSR Citizens who are not Citizens of Latvia or of Any Other State, and are granted a transitional legal status to permanently residing persons (non-citizens) which entitles them to a set of rights and obligations generally beyond the minimum rights prescribed by the 1954 Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons. The non-citizens enjoy the right to reside in Latvia ex lege and the right to acquire citizenship through registration and/or naturalisation (depending on age). A number of measures have been taken by the Latvian Government to facilitate their acquisition of citizenship; nonetheless, some non-citizens have chosen not to pursue naturalization. Some may have acquired a nationality other than Latvian nationality; however in the absence of reliable data in this regard, UNHCR includes in its statistical reporting the full number of non-citizens reported by Latvia.
25 Figure of Stateless persons was estimated from the 2014 census. It does not include an estimated 151,921 stateless IDPs, persons in an IDP-like situation who are also of concern under the statelessness mandate because they are already included within the figures on IDPs.In Rakhine State it is estimated to be approximately one million.
26 Various studies estimate that a large number of individuals lack citizenship certificates in Nepal. While these individuals are not all necessarily stateless, UNHCR has been working closely with the Government of Nepal and partners to address this situation.
27 Refugee figure relates to the end of 2014.28 Figure of Stateless persons refers to the census figure from 2010 adjusted to
reflect the number of stateless persons who acquired nationality in 2011-2015. The figure includes 12,881 stateless persons holding a temporary or a permanent residence permit.
29 An adjustment to 2014 end of year figures in particular for the number of asylum applications pending on appeal and review has resulted in a substantially higher figure for numbers of asylum seekers reported in South Africa for 2015. It should be noted that the current legal framework in South Africa does not enable the withdrawal (whether explicit or implicit) of asylum applications lodged.
30 IDP figure in South Sudan includes 105,000 people who are in an IDP-like situation.
31 The statistics of the remaining IDPs at the end of the year, while provided by the Government authorities at the district level, are being reviewed by the central authorities. Once this review has been concluded, the statistics will be changed accordingly.
32 Refugee figure for Iraqis and Stateless persons in the Syrian Arab Republic was a Government estimate. UNHCR has registered and is assisting 18,300 Iraqis at the end of 2015.
33 Figure of Stateless persons is Updated from the Royal Thai Government. The decrease includes the grant of Thai nationality to over 18,000 stateless people in the last three years.
34 Refugee figure for Syrians in Turkey was a Government estimate.35 IDP figure in Ukraine includes 800,000 people who are in an IDP-like situation.36 The refugee figure for the United States of America is currently under review,
which may lead to an adjustment in future reports.37 Figure of stateless persons refers to those with permanent residence reported
in 2010 by the Government. Information on other categories of stateless persons is not available.
38 Figure of stateless persons is an estimate and currently under review.Source: UNHCR/Governments.

NotesThe data are generally provided by Governments, based on their own definitions and methods of data collection.A dash (“-”) indicates that the value is zero, not available or not applicable. All data are provisional and subject to change.1 Country or territory of origin.2 Persons recognized as refugees under the 1951 UN Convention/1967 Protocol,
the 1969 OAU Convention, in accordance with the UNHCR Statute, persons granted a complementary form of protection and those granted temporary protection. In the absence of Government figures, UNHCR has estimated the refugee population in many industrialized countries based on 10 years of individual asylum-seeker recognition.
3 This category is descriptive in nature and includes groups of persons who are outside their country or territory of origin and who face protection risks similar to those of refugees, but for whom refugee status has, for practical or other reasons, not been ascertained.
4 Persons whose application for asylum or refugee status is pending at any stage in the asylum procedure.
5 Refugees who have returned to their place of origin during 2015. Source: country of origin and asylum.
6 Persons who are displaced within their country and to whom UNHCR extends protection and/or assistance. It also includes people in IDP-like situations. This category is descriptive in nature and includes groups of persons who are inside their country of nationality or habitual residence and who face protection risks similar to those of IDPs but who, for practical or other reasons, could not be reported as such.
7 IDPs protected/assisted by UNHCR who have returned to their place of origin during 2015.
8 Refers to persons who are not considered as nationals by any State under the operation of its law. This category refers to persons who fall under the agency’s statelessness mandate because they are stateless according to this international definition, but data from some countries may also include persons with undetermined nationality. See Annex Table 7 at http://www.unhcr.org/statistics/15-WRD-table-7.xls for detailed notes.
9 Refers to individuals who do not necessarily fall directly into any of the other groups but to whom UNHCR may extend its protection and/or assistance services. These activities might be based on humanitarian or other special grounds.
10 UNHCR has recommended on 4 April 2014 to start the process of cessation of refugee status for refugees from Croatia displaced during the 1991-95 conflict. The Office suggests that cessation enters into effect latest by the end of 2017.
11 UNHCR’s assistance activities for IDPs in Cyprus ended in 1999. Visit the website of the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC) for further information.
12 Refugee figure for Iraqis in the Syrian Arab Republic was a Government estimate. UNHCR has registered and is assisting 18,300 Iraqis at the end of 2015. The refugee population in Jordan includes 33,200 Iraqis registered with UNHCR. The Government of Jordan estimated the number of Iraqis at 400,000 individuals at the end of March 2015. This includes refugees and other categories of Iraqis.
13 Figure of stateless persons was estimated from the 2014 census. It does not include an estimated 151,921 stateless IDPs, persons in an IDP-like situation who are also of concern under the statelessness mandate because they are already included within the figures on IDPs.In Rakhine State it is estimated to be approximately one million.
14 Refers to Palestinian refugees under the UNHCR mandate only.15 The number of Rwandan refugees in the Democratic Republic of the Congo is
subject to change based on an ongoing registration exercise. The figure 245,000 was provided by the Government of Democratic Republic of the Congo.
16 An unknown number of refugees and asylum-seekers from South Sudan may be included under Sudan (in absence of separate statistics for both countries). IDP figure in South Sudan includes 105,000 people who are in an IDP-like situation.
17 The statistics of the remaining IDPs at the end of 2015, while provided by the Government authorities at the district level, are being reviewed by the central authorities. Once this review has been concluded, the statistics will be changed accordingly.
18 Figures for refugees and asylum-seekers may include citizens of South Sudan (in absence of separate statistics for both countries).
19 IDP figure in Ukraine includes 800,000 people who are in an IDP-like situation.20 A limited number of countries record refugee and asylum statistics by country
of birth rather than country of origin. This affects the number of refugees reported as originating from the United States of America.
21 The 300,000 Vietnamese refugees are well integrated and in practice receive protection from the Government of China.
22 According to the Government of Algeria, there are an estimated 165,000 Sahrawi refugees in the Tindouf camps.

Refugees and people in a refugee-like situation, excluding asylum-seekers, and changes by country/territory of asylum | 2015 For many industrialized countries, UNHCR has estimated the refugee population based on 10 years of individual refugee recognition.The columns “Major increases” and “Major decreases” exclude population changes resulting from administrative corrections, adjust-ments as a result of registration, new estimates as well as births and deaths. In some cases, the population at the end of 2015 does not equal the population at the start of 2015 plus increases and decreases. This discrepancy is due to the fact that the voluntary repatriation figures include estimates from countries of return.

Refugees and people in a refugee-like situation, excluding asylum-seekers, and changes by country/terri-tory of asylum | 2015 (ctnd) For many industrialized countries, UNHCR has estimated the refugee population based on 10 years of individual refugee recognition.The columns “Major increases” and “Major decreases” exclude population changes resulting from administrative corrections, adjustments as a result of registration, new estimates as well as births and deaths. In some cases, the population at the end of 2015 does not equal the population at the start of 2015 plus increases and decreases. This discrepancy is due to the fact that the voluntary repatriation figures include estimates from countries of return. In addition, the full details of the changes in the refugee population in industrialized countries are often unknown.* Voluntary repatriation shows a best estimate, based on country of asylum and country of origin reports.

Refugees and people in a refugee-like situation, excluding asylum-seekers, and changes by country/terri-tory of origin | 2015 (ctnd) For many industrialized countries, UNHCR has estimated the refugee population based on 10 years of individual refugee recognition.The columns “Major increases” and “Major decreases” exclude population changes resulting from administrative corrections, adjustments as a result of registration, new estimates as well as births and deaths. In some cases, the population at the end of 2015 does not equal the population at the start of 2015 plus increases and decreases. This discrepancy is due to the fact that the voluntary repatriation figures include estimates from countries of return. In addition, the full details of the changes in the refugee population in industrialized countries are often unknown.* Voluntary repatriation shows a best estimate, based on country of asylum and country of origin reports.

TABLE 4
NotesA dash (“-”) indicates that the value is zero or not available.1 UNHCR has recommended on 4 April 2014 to start the process of cessation of
refugee status for refugees from Croatia displaced during the 1991-95 conflict. The Office suggests that cessation enters into effect latest by the end of 2017.
2 Refugee figure for Iraqis in the Syrian Arab Republic is a Government estimate. UNHCR is assisting 18,300 Iraqis at the end of 2015. Figure includes 33,200 Iraqi refugees registered with UNHCR in Jordan. The Government estimates the number of Iraqis at 400,000 individuals at the end of March 2015. This includes refugees and other categories of Iraqis.
3 The total figure at the end of 2015 includes 200,000 persons in Bangladesh originating from Myanmar in a refugee-like situation. The Government of Bangladesh estimates the population to be between 300,000 and 500,000.
4 Refers to Palestinian refugees under the UNHCR mandate only.5 The number of Rwandan refugees in the Democratic Republic of the Congo is
subject to change based on an ongoing registration exercise. The figure 245,000 was provided by the Government of Democratic Republic of the Congo.
6 A limited number of countries record refugee and asylum statistics by country of birth rather than country of origin. This affects the number of refugees reported as originating from the United States of America.
7 The 300,000 Vietnamese refugees are well integrated and in practice receive protection from the Government of the People’s Republic of China.
8 According to the Government of Algeria, there are an estimated 165,000 Sahrawi refugees in the Tindouf camps.

Refugees and people in a refugee-like situation, excluding asylum-seekers, and changes by origin and country of asylum | 2015 (ctnd) The refugee population is included in this table if the number was 1,000 or more at the end of 2015.For many industrialized countries, UNHCR has estimated the refugee population based on 10 years of asylum-seeker recognition.The columns “Major increases” and “Major decreases” exclude population changes resulting from administrative corrections, adjust-ments as a result of registration, new estimates as well as births and deaths. In some cases, the population at the end of 2015 does not equal the population at the start of 2015 plus increases and decreases. This discrepancy is due to the fact that the voluntary repatriation figures include estimates from countries of return. In addition, the full details of the changes in the refugee population in industrialized countries are often unknown.* Voluntary repatriation shows a best estimate, based on country of asylum and country of origin reports.Figures between 1 and 4 have been replaced with an asterisk.

Refugees and people in a refugee-like situation, excluding asylum-seekers, and changes by origin and country of asylum | 2015 (ctnd) The refugee population is included in this table if the number was 1,000 or more at the end of 2015.For many industrialized countries, UNHCR has estimated the refugee population based on 10 years of asylum-seeker recognition.The columns “Major increases” and “Major decreases” exclude population changes resulting from administrative corrections, adjust-ments as a result of registration, new estimates as well as births and deaths. In some cases, the population at the end of 2015 does not equal the population at the start of 2015 plus increases and decreases. This discrepancy is due to the fact that the voluntary repatriation figures include estimates from countries of return. In addition, the full details of the changes in the refugee population in industrialized countries are often unknown.* Voluntary repatriation shows a best estimate, based on country of asylum and country of origin reports.Figures between 1 and 4 have been replaced with an asterisk.

Refugees and people in a refugee-like situation, excluding asylum-seekers, and changes by origin and country of asylum | 2015 (ctnd) The refugee population is included in this table if the number was 1,000 or more at the end of 2015.For many industrialized countries, UNHCR has estimated the refugee population based on 10 years of asylum-seeker recognition.The columns “Major increases” and “Major decreases” exclude population changes resulting from administrative corrections, adjustments as a result of registration, new estimates as well as births and deaths. In some cases, the population at the end of 2015 does not equal the population at the start of 2015 plus increases and decreases. This discrepancy is due to the fact that the voluntary repatriation figures include estimates from countries of return. In addition, the full details of the changes in the refugee population in industrialized countries are often unknown.* Voluntary repatriation shows a best estimate, based on country of asylum and country of origin reports.Figures between 1 and 4 have been replaced with an asterisk.

These are also not necessarily representative of the entire IDP population in a given country. Many of the world’s IDP situations are not covered by UNHCR and are thus not reflected. For global IDP estimates, visit the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre at www.internal-displacement.org.Most IDP figures are rough estimates and rounded to the nearest hundredth.

Persons under UNHCR’s statelessness mandate | 2015 (ctnd) N.B. Stateless refugees are included in Table 3 and stateless asylum-seekers in Table 12.Data is not complete and includes estimates. Countries for which UNHCR has information about stateless persons but no reliable data have been included in the table and marked with an asterisk (*).These statistics cover stateless persons and persons of undetermined nationality.
TABLE 7
46 U N H C R > S T A T I S T I C A L Y E A R B O O K 2 0 1 5
NotesA dash (“-”) indicates that the value is zero or not available.1 Figure refers to a census from 2011 and is currently under review.2 Figure from 2009 census. 1,640 persons were registered by the Ministry of
Interior as stateless at the end of 2012.3 Number of stateless persons registered by the Department of Citizenship and
Migration of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Belarus. (In the 2009 census, 16,116 persons declared that they do not possess any nationality).
4 Figure adjusted to reflect the results of a verification exercise, identification of new cases and the number of individuals who had their nationality confirmed in 2014 and 2015.
5 Figure from the 2010 census.6 Figure refers to a population of undetermined nationality.7 The figure includes: i) 300,000 children abandoned at birth: Government
estimate of individuals of unknown parentage who were abandoned as children and who are not considered as nationals under Ivorian law. ii) 400,000 descendants of immigrants: Government estimate of individuals who themselves or whose parents or grandparents migrated to Côte d’Ivoire before or just after independence and who did not establish their nationality at independence or before the nationality law changed in 1972. The estimate is derived in part from cases denied voter registration in 2010 because electoral authorities could not determine their nationality at the time.
8 Figure from the 2011 census. It includes 23 persons registered as stateless by the Government of Croatia.
9 Figure from the 2011 census.10 This revised estimate of 133,770 stateless persons includes only individuals
born in the country to parents who were both born abroad, It does not include individuals born in the country to one foreign-born and one Dominican-born parent, as per the previously reported figure of 210,000. This estimate does not include subsequent generations of individuals of foreign descent, as there is no reliable population data available on groups other than first-generation individuals. As such, this estimate does not include all persons without nationality in the country. It will be adjusted as official data becomes available on the number of individuals who have found an effective nationality solution.
11 Almost all people recorded as being stateless have permanent residence and enjoy more rights than foreseen in the 1954 Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons.
12 The figure does not represent the entire number of persons registered as stateless in the German Central Aliens Register. The number of stateless persons holding a humanitarian residence title (not all of whom are persons of concern to UNHCR) and the number of stateless asylum-seekers have been deducted from it.
13 Includes people deprived of their citizenship under previous nationality legislation, stateless individuals with permanent residence who are recognized as “stateless foreigners” and other stateless persons resident in Greece.
14 Figure refers to individuals without a nationality who were born in the Dominican Republic prior to January 2010 and who were identified by UNHCR in Haiti during the reporting period.
15 Pending a more accurate study into stateless in Iraq, the estimate of stateless persons in Iraq has been adjusted to reflect the reduction of statelessness in line with Law 26 of 2006, which allows stateless persons to apply for nationality in certain circumstances.
16 The figure does not include potentially stateless Bedouin nor all stateless former USSR citizens.
17 Updated figure from the National Institute of Statistics (ISTAT).18 The figure of 20,000 is an estimate by UNHCR and civil society organizations
based on currently available information on several communities in Kenya. This estimate is under review pending further research and mapping activities.
19 The Republic of Latvia enacted a Law on Stateless Persons on 17 February 2004, which replaced the Law on the Status of Stateless Persons in the Republic of Latvia of 18 February 1999, and which determines the legal status of persons who are not considered as citizens by the legislation of any State and whose status is not determined by the 25th April 1995 Law (quoted below).
20 This figure includes persons who fall under the Republic of Latvia’s 25 April
1995 Law on the Status of Those Former USSR Citizens who are not Citizens of Latvia or of Any Other State, who are granted a transitional legal status to permanently residing persons (non-citizens) which entitles them to a set of rights and obligations generally beyond the minimum rights prescribed by the 1954 Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons. The non-citizens enjoy the right to reside in Latvia ex lege and the right to acquire citizenship through registration and/or naturalisation (depending on age). A number of measures have been taken by the Latvian Government to facilitate their acquisition of citizenship; nonetheless, some non-citizens have chosen not to pursue naturalization. Some may have acquired a nationality other than Latvian nationality; however in the absence of reliable data in this regard, UNHCR includes in its statistical reporting the full number of non-citizens reported by Latvia.
21 The figure is an estimated number of individuals who are stateless, including people who are unable to establish their nationality from among the Indian community (Tamils). Estimate is based on NGO and media reports, some citing official sources.
22 2011 census figure adjusted to reflect number of persons that acquired naionality.
23 This figure is an estimate of stateless persons in Rakhine State derived from the 2014 census. It does not include an estimated 151,921 stateless IDPs, persons in an IDP-like situation who are also of concern under the statelessness mandate because they are already included within the figures on IDPs. In Rakhine State it is estimated to be approximately one million.
24 Various studies estimate that a large number of individuals lack citizenship certificates in Nepal. While these individuals are not all necessarily stateless, UNHCR has been working closely with the Government of Nepal and partners to address this situation.
25 The updated figure is based on a registration exercise covering 24 municipalities in 2014 and 2015.
26 Figure is from the 2011 census, likely to include 2,020 persons registered as stateless by the authorities.
27 Updated figure from the Portuguese Immigration Service referring to 2013.28 The figure includes persons determined to be stateless following the
statelessness determination procedure and persons with undetermined nationality who hold expired Soviet passports.
29 The figure refers to the census figure from 2010 adjusted to reflect the number of stateless persons who acquired nationality in 2011-2015. The figure includes 12,881 stateless persons holding a temporary or a permanent residence permit.
30 The great majority are former Yugoslav citizens who have yet to have their Serbian nationality formally recognized through the issuance of documents proving nationality.
31 Figure from the 2011 census. It includes 63 stateless persons who held permits to stay in Slovakia at the end of 2011. No updated data on the number of stateless persons is available.
32 The figure is based on an NGO analysis of government registry data and may not represent the full magnitude of statelessness in Slovenia.
33 The figure is an estimate.34 Figure based on a registration exercise in three regions and 729 people
registered as stateless by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Tajikistan.35 Updated figure from the Royal Thai Government. The decrease includes the
grant of Thai nationality to over 18,000 stateless people in the last three years.36 The great majority are former Yugoslav citizens who have yet to have their
nationality of The former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia formally recognized through the issuance of documents proving nationality.
37 The figure is an extrapolation of the 2001 census figure of persons who self-declared as not having a nationality. It includes 3,217 persons who are registered as stateless by the Ministry of the Interior of Ukraine.
38 Figure refers to persons who have been recognized as stateless through the statelessness determination procedure in 2013 - 2015.
39 Figure refers to stateless persons with permanent residence reported by the Government in 2010. Information on other categories of stateless persons is not available.
40 The figure is an estimate and currently under review.

Asylum applications and refugee status determination by country/territory of asylum | 2015 (ctnd)In countries with more than one level in the procedure (first instance, appeal, etc.), the figures for both procedures have been added up. As a result, appeal cases might have been counted more than once (once at first instance and once on appeal). These data allow for monitoring of the number of decisions taken, but they are not indicative of the final outcome of the procedure for negative deci-sions. For information on recognition rates, see Annex Table 10.
NotesA dash (“-”) indicates that the value is zero or not available. Two dots (“..”) indicate that the value is not available.* Data refers to number of cases or mix of persons and cases.** Asylum applications during 2015 are not adjusted.1 Protection indicators (calculated by UNHCR):
Otherwise closed rate: Otherwise closed divided by Total no. of decisions * 100%.Change in pending cases: Cases pending as at 31 December 2015 minus Cases pending as at 1 January 2015 divided by Cases pending as at 1 January 2015 * 100%.
2 Australia’s figures for asylum-seekers are based on the number of applications lodged for protection visas.
3 No information on asylum applications registered or decisions taken during 2015 is available. Pending cases refers to September 2013.
4 Asylum applications registered and decisions taken is limited to UNHCR data. 5 Figures are UNHCR estimates.6 Data include asylum-seekers registered with UNHCR as well as asylum-seekers

Asylum applications and refugee status determination by origin | 2015In countries with more than one level in the procedure (first instance, appeal, etc.), the figures for both procedures have been added up. As a result, appeal cases might have been counted more than once (once at first instance and once on appeal). These data allow to monitor the number of decisions taken, but they are not indicative of the final outcome of the procedure of negative decisions. For instance, recognition rates for nationalities which tend to appeal a rejection are underestimated.

Asylum applications and refugee status determination by origin | 2015 (ctnd)In countries with more than one level in the procedure (first instance, appeal, etc.), the figures for both procedures have been added up. As a result, appeal cases might have been counted more than once (once at first instance and once on appeal). These data allow to monitor the number of decisions taken, but they are not indicative of the final outcome of the procedure of negative decisions. For instance, recognition rates for nationalities which tend to appeal a rejection are underestimated.
