Safe country concepts come up in the Admissibility Procedure in Turkey’s international protection procedure. The LFIP provides “first country of asylum” and “safe third country” concepts but no “safe country of origin” concept. Where an applicant is identified to have arrived in Turkey from either a “first country of asylum” or a “safe third country”, an inadmissibility decision will be issued under Article 72 LFIP.

F. The safe country concepts contains sections on:

  1. First country of asylum
  2. Safe third country
