Press Release: First Dublin Center in Hamburg for Rapid Transfers of Asylum Seekers to Responsible EU Member States
Hamburg, February 12, 2025 – Today, the first Dublin Center in Hamburg was inaugurated. The center will be responsible for the accelerated processing of asylum applications and the transfer of asylum seekers to the responsible EU member state under the Dublin III Regulation.
The establishment of the Dublin Center is a response to the increasing number of asylum applications and the need for a more efficient and humane asylum system. The center will bring together all relevant authorities under one roof, including the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF), the Federal Police, and the European Asylum Support Office (EASO).
“The opening of the Dublin Center is a milestone in the reform of the European asylum system,” said Federal Interior Minister Nancy Faeser. “We are creating a central point of contact for asylum seekers and accelerating the transfer process to the responsible EU member state. This will relieve the burden on other cities and regions and ensure that asylum seekers receive a fair and efficient asylum procedure.”
The Dublin Center in Hamburg will initially be responsible for processing asylum applications from citizens of Afghanistan, Syria, and Iraq. The center will also be responsible for coordinating the transfer of asylum seekers to other EU member states.
“The Dublin Center is a symbol of our commitment to a humane and efficient asylum system,” said Hamburg Mayor Peter Tschentscher. “We are pleased to be able to offer asylum seekers a central point of contact and to support them on their journey.”
The Dublin Center in Hamburg is part of a network of Dublin Centers that are being established throughout Europe. The centers aim to improve the efficiency of the Dublin system and to ensure that asylum seekers are treated fairly and humanely.
