Afghans were the largest contingent of first-time applicants for international protection in France in 2021. This application allows migrants to access refugee status and protects them from being forced to return to their country of origin. In this total, minors accompanying the seekers are also included. Ivorians were the second most represented nationality. The total number of applicants from the ten main nationalities together accounted for about the half of the total number of applicants.
