Hello
The Ministry of Justice has started a notification service for filing appeals against asylum decisions, sending messages through KakaoTalk or text message. The service aims to make the asylum appeal procedure easier. If you would like to learn about the appeal filing service, please look at today’s news.
Start of the notification service for those who need to file an asylum appeal
Why was this service introduced?
The notification service started so that people can understand and follow the appeal procedure on refugee matters handled by the Ministry of Justice. This service is for people whose asylum application was rejected, cancelled or withdrawn.
Who can receive the notification service?
Those who have received the following notices are eligible for the service.
Notice of non-recognition of refugee status: a decision that refugee status is not granted (including a decision to grant a humanitarian stay permit) made by the Immigration Office. *
* Notice of cancellation of refugee status: retroactive annulment of a decision recognizing refugee status when it is found that the decision was made through forged documents, false statements or concealment of facts
* Notice of withdrawal of refugee status: suspension of a decision recognizing refugee status when a recognized refugee voluntarily reacquires his or her nationality after losing it, or becomes unable to refuse the protection of his or her home country because the main reasons for the recognition decision have ceased to exist, and so on
How will the service be carried out?
First, you will receive a message on your phone through the KakaoTalk app. If no message reaches your KakaoTalk app, you will receive the notice by text message the next day.
When will this service start?
From May 26, 2022 (Thursday)
