Integration or departure?: More tolerated persons in Germany again - numbers steadily increasing
After years of decline, the number of tolerated persons in Germany is continuously increasing again. What developments could be behind this?
The number of people living in Germany with a temporary suspension of deportation, known as a "Duldung", has risen to 200,601 as of September 30. This is an increase after a decline in the years 2023 to 2025. The German government attributes the rise to factors including the expiration of the "Chancenaufenthaltsrecht" law, which provided a pathway to residency for certain individuals with a Duldung.
Around 13,460 minors are among those with a Duldung, and 402 have an "Ausbildungsduldung" and 17 have a "Beschäftigungsduldung".
