The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many asylum claims have been submitted by Ukrainian nationals in each of the last three years; and what proportion of those were successful by oblast of origin.

Answered by Seema Malhotra

The Home Office publishes data on asylum in the ‘Immigration System Statistics Quarterly Release’. Data on the number of asylum claims and initial decisions by nationality is published in table Asy_D01 of the ‘Asylum claims and initial decisions detailed datasets’. Information on how to use the dataset can be found in the ‘Notes’ page of the workbook. The latest data relates to the year ending March 2025.

Please note that data on asylum claims by sub-national regions of origin is not published.

Information on future Home Office statistical release dates can be found in the ‘Research and statistics calendar’.
