Germany Sees Spike in Number of Foreigners Deported in 2025

Germany deported 6,151 people in the first quarter of 2025, marking a rise compared to previous years and reaching more than quarterly averages in the past two years.
This increase follows the Repatriation Act, effective February 27, 2024, which expanded authorities' powers to deport not only criminals but also other asylum seekers.
Most deportations flew to Turkey, Georgia, France, Spain, and Serbia, with around 1,700 classified as Dublin transfers and significant costs involved, especially for charter flights.
Left Party MP Clara Bünger condemned deportation methods as "brutal and without any empathy," noting families torn apart and sick people forcibly removed from hospitals during procedures.
If current trends continue, Germany could exceed 24,000 deportations in 2025, as the new conservative-led government plans to further increase repatriations to save resources.
