UNHCR footnotes (4)
  • All · ASY · asylum — Australia’s figures for asylum-seekers are based on the number of applications lodged for protection visas.
  • All · ASY · asylum — Australia's figures for asylum-seekers are based on the number of applications lodged for protection visas.
  • All · REF · asylum — The methodology for estimating the number of refugees in Australia is under review and subject to adjustment in future reports. The asylum-seeker figure is based on the number of applications lodged for protection visas.
  • All · STA · asylum — Stateless figures in Australia are sourced from the Government. They consist of figures on stateless persons held in detention and those that have been issued or are in an application process for an “Onshore Humanitarian Visa” and have self-reported to be stateless. Australia does not have a separate statelessness status determination procedure and only provides statistics on humanitarian visas. Due to this, the figure reported here does not capture all stateless persons in Australia and is not an estimate of statelessness in Australia. Figures for stateless persons in detention come from the Australian Government Department of Home Affairs and Australian Border Force report on Immigration Detention and Community Statistics Summary 31 January 2022.
