Family reunification plays a critical role in the successful integration of migrants and refugees in a new country. Additionally, family reunification schemes in the context of international protection extend protection to family members in potentially vulnerable circumstances.
This latest EMN Inform compares national policies and practices on family reunification between EMN Member and Observer Countries. Following on from a previous study on Family Reunification in 2017, the Inform concentrates on specific aspects related to family reunification for beneficiaries of international protection including the submission and processing of applications for family reunification, documentary evidence required for application and family reunification with or for children coming of age.
