According to the Statistical Office of the European Union asylum seekers in Germany are more frequently granted protection than in other EU countries. In 2009, 33.8 percent of all foreign nationals applying for asylum in Germany were granted a residence permit. In 2008, this overall protection rate was as high as 37.7 percent. It is likely that a combination of different factors has contributed to this development. One factor is the increasing influence of Europan Law on the granting of protection in Germany. A new study published by the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees, acting as the German National Contact Point for the European Migration Network (EMN), now attempts to clarify the relationship between national and European protection statuses in Germany.
