With the "Returning from Germany" online portal, a nationwide hotline for returnees, of the Information Centre for Voluntary Return (ZIRF) and ZIRF Counselling, the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees offers a range of information on the topic of voluntary return to and reintegration in countries of origin.
Be it on the promotion that is available, the closest return advice centre or information on the countries of origin: The "Returning from Germany" online portal offers comprehensive information for prospective returnees.
Prospective returnees, authorities and volunteers can address their questions on voluntary return to the Federal Office’s return hotline in order to obtain initial information.
Prospective returnees can turn to an independent return counselling centre with their questions at any time. Return counselling is the responsibility of the Federal Länder, and is provided by independent welfare organisations in most cases.
