In 2025, around 41,123 asylum applications were submitted in Germany (as of March 2025). Extrapolated to the full year (without accounting for seasonal variations), approximately 164,000 applications can be expected; this would mark the second consecutive annual decline and the lowest number since 2020. Numbers were highest in 2016. The most asylum applications came from citizens of Syria, Afghanistan and Turkey.
