Refugee Protection

To stay in the UK as a refugee, you must apply for asylum. To be eligible, you must have left your home country and be unable to return because you fear persecution due to factors such as your race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership of a particular social group.

You should apply for asylum as soon as you arrive in the UK, or as soon as you believe it would be unsafe for you to return to your country. Delaying your application may negatively affect your claim and could increase the likelihood of it being refused.
