Following the changes in the Registration system in 2018, when a PDMM is unable to register their application, applicants for international protection are generally informed of the province (“satellite city”) where they have to report to the PDMM in order to register their application and where they will be required to reside. However, this is not consistently done across provinces.
The Help platform established by UNHCR provides information on rights such as education, employment and health care in English, Turkish, Arabic and Farsi. This platform has a new section for Ukranian nationals, providing specific information for this group. In addition, UNHCR’s services advisor platform[1] which shows available services for refugees in Türkiye and UNHCR Türkiye Information Board on Facebook are accessible for asylum seekers. (See Provision of information on the procedure & Information for asylum seekers and access to NGOs and UNHCR).
