The notification of decisions granting or refusing subsidiary protection status is temporarily suspended for applicants from Lebanon
The Office of the Commissioner General for Refugees and Stateless Persons (CGVS) announced on 2 October 2024 that the notification of decisions granting or refusing subsidiary protection status to applicants from Lebanon is suspended until the CGRS has sufficient objective information to assess the security situation in Lebanon.
In the context of recent events and the unstable situation in Lebanon, the CGRS announced that it will continue to process cases of applicants coming from Lebanon. The CGRS will continue to notify decisions granting refugee status, in which an individual well-founded fear of persecution is clearly established and decisions of inadmissibility for persons enjoying a protection status in another Member State.
However, the notification of decisions granting or refusing subsidiary protection status is suspended. This suspension is only temporary, and applies until the CGRS has sufficient objective information to accurately assess the security situation in Lebanon.
