Mexico has emerged as a key destination and transit country in the Americas for people in need of international protection, hosting more than 800,000 refugees, asylum-seekers, stateless persons, and others by end of 2024 – primarily from Venezuela, Honduras, Haiti, and Cuba.

Ongoing arrivals of asylum-seekers highlight Mexico’s expanding role in regional displacement dynamics and northbound mixed migration flows.

UNHCR supports the Mexican Government in ensuring access to protection and asylum for people fleeing violence and persecution. In partnership with national actors and host communities, UNHCR promotes durable solutions with a focus on local integration, rights protection, and long-term inclusion.
