UNHCR’s observations to Danish law proposal on increased control in the area of immigration

UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, has submitted observations to the Danish government's proposal to amend the Aliens Act (Increased control in the area of immigration).

When a foreigner has lost his Danish travel document more than once within a period of five years, he risks having to live without a Danish travel document for five years. The exclusion will apply unless the foreigner can prove that the loss is due to fire or theft. Only after prior application will a foreigner during the ban period be allowed to make a short trip to, for example, visit close family.

UNHCR's observations are available here.
