What is political asylum and who is eligible for it?

Political asylum is the protection provided by the State to persons who are being persecuted in their home country on political, religious, racial or other grounds. Asylum candidates can be people who have faced the threat of imprisonment, torture, violence, or life threats because of their beliefs, religion, race, or nationality.

Each case of political asylum is unique, and in order to successfully obtain asylum, it is necessary to prepare a strong and logically consistent dossier that will support your request.

How do I create a dossier for an asylum?

1. Collecting evidence
   In order to apply for political asylum, it is necessary to collect as much evidence as possible to confirm your case. These can be:

   • Evidence of persecution (letters, notes, photographs).

   • Reports from human rights organizations such as Amnesty International or Human Rights Watch.

   • Media reports confirming the facts of the persecution.

   • Letters from witnesses who can confirm the facts of the persecution.

2. The legal link
   It is important to prove that the persecution is of a political nature and is related to one of five characteristics: race, religion, nationality, social group or political beliefs. We will help you formulate your application correctly so that it complies with international standards and legal requirements.

3. Structuring the dossier
   The documents must be logically structured and comply with the requirements of the migration authorities. The dossier must contain:

   • Detailed description of the persecution.

   • An explanation of why returning to the country of origin can lead to a threat to life or freedom.

   • The historical context of the persecution.

4. Filing a dossier
   After the dossier is collected, we submit it to the appropriate authorities, be it the migration services of the United States, Great Britain or EU countries. This is an important stage, as proper paperwork is crucial for business success.
