Country Report: Accelerated procedure
Last updated: 10/04/25
General (scope, grounds for accelerated procedures, time limits)
There are no accelerated procedures in use. The detained fast track process was suspended in 2015 and as a result of the Nationality and Borders Act, cases certified as clearly unfounded on or after 28 June 2022 have no right of appeal at all. There are provisions in the Nationality and Borders Act 2022 for “accelerated detained appeals” but these are not in force.[1]
