COMMON ANALYSIS
Last update: January 2025

 

This chapter looks into the topic of internal protection alternative. It analyses the situation in Tehran in relation to the requirements of Article 8 QD/QR.

In order to determine that internal protection alternative is available in a particular part of the applicant’s country of origin, three cumulative criteria have to be met, namely: ‘safety’, ‘travel and admittance’ and ‘reasonableness to settle’.

In relation to these elements, when assessing the applicability of IPA, the case officer should consider the general situation in Tehran, as well as the individual circumstances of the applicant.
