Abstract

In a meeting on 13 November 2025, the Coordination Committee of the Refugee Appeals Board discussed the current situation in Sudan, and concluded that the situation in North Darfur and Al-Fasher is currently marked by such an extreme level of general violence that there is a real risk of treatment contrary to Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights solely by the mere presence. The Coordination Committee affirmed therefore that there is a basis for granting residence permits under Section 7(3) of the Aliens Act to applicants from these areas. The members of the Committee also agreed that, due to the general situation in Sudan, particular caution must be exercised in the evidentiary assessment of cases involving individuals from Sudan. They further agreed that the application of an internal flight alternative in Sudan is generally not possible.
