The number of refugees residing in Thailand declined to 94.47 thousand refugees in 2022. Nevertheless, the last two years recorded a significant higher number of refugees residing than the preceding years. Refugee population includes people who are outside of their country of origin for reasons of feared persecution, conflict, generalized violence, or other circumstances that have seriously disturbed public order and, therefore, require international protection. Country or territory of asylum is the country or territory where an asylum claim was filed and granted.
