 INTRODUCTION

Introduction
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, stats@unhcr.org.

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. ■

WHO ARE INCLUDED IN THE STATISTICS?
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
4 U N H C R > S TAT I S T I C A L Y E A R B O O K 2 0 1 5
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.

Notes
The 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.
U N H C R > S TAT I S T I C A L Y E A R B O O K 2 0 1 5
TABLE 1
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 With respect to persons under UNHCR’s statelessness mandate, this figure includes
persons of concern covered by two separate Latvian laws. 178 persons fall under
the Republic of Latvia’s Law on Stateless Persons on 17 February 2004. 252,017 of
the persons fall under Latvia’s 25 April 1995 Law on the Status of those Former
USSR Citizens who are not Citizens of Latvia or Any Other State (“Non-citizens”). In
the specific context of Latvia, the “Non-citizens” enjoy the right to reside in Latvia
ex lege and a set of rights and obligations generally beyond the rights prescribed
by the 1954 Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons, including
protection from removal, and as such the “Non-citizens” may currently be
considered persons to whom the Convention does not apply in accordance with
Article 1.2(ii).
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.

Notes
The 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/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.

Notes
A 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, 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 5

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.

 TABLE 5

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.

 TABLE 5

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.

Notes
A 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

TABLE 7
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 of concern who fall under Latvia’s 25th April 1995
Law on the Status of those Former USSR Citizens who are not Citizens of Latvia
or Any other State (“Non-citizens”). In the specific context of Latvia, the “Non-
citizens” enjoy the right to reside in Latvia ex lege and a set of rights and
obligations generally beyond the rights prescribed by the 1954 Convention
relating to the Status of Stateless Persons, including protection from removal,
and as such the “Non-citizens” may currently be considered persons to whom
the Convention does not apply in accordance with Article 1.2(ii).
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

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.

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.

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.

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.
