Who decides who will be admitted to Germany?

07.07.2023 - Question

As with previous humanitarian admission procedures, the German Government decides who is selected for admission to Germany. It does so in line with established selection criteria. Further information about these criteria can be found in the admission directive. The number of persons put forward is expected to exceed the admission quota. That means that not every person nominated by authorised agencies will be granted approval for admission.
