Details

Status determination procedures are a core protection function and the principle mechanism through which international protection needs of Persons of Concern may be determined in accordance with the key provisions of the 1951 Convention and 1967 Protocol relating to the Status of Refugees, the 1954 Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons, or relevant regional refugee protection instruments. Status determination procedures are therefore central to the full and effective enjoyment of the universal right to seek and enjoy asylum and the specific rights guaranteed by the above instruments.

A prolonged waiting period during the status determination procedure is an important indicator of the state of efficiency, fairness, adaptability integrity and hence, overall quality of the national asylum or, depending on the context, UNHCR Mandate RSD procedure, including the timeliness and effectiveness of the overall protection response in the country.
