German asylum policy towards Syrians experienced a notable shift during 2026, with a significant increase in the withdrawal or revocation of refugee protections. In the first half of the year, more than 8,300 protection files were reviewed, resulting in the removal of protection in approximately 23.2% of cases—an increase compared to the 3-4% rate in the previous two years. These changes now include a broader review of Syrian women and family cases, ensuring each case is assessed individually. This does not necessarily mean immediate repatriation to Syria, as deportations remain limited and are subject to each individual's legal circumstances. Additionally, a sharp decline in Syrian asylum applications was observed, with rejection rates reaching about 69% in the first half of 2026.
