The German Red Cross offers counseling for migrants or refugees who think about returning to their country of origin, or want to avoid being removed by the police to their country of origin. Since 2007 we offer our services for people who are not EU-citizens. Our work is based on the humanitarian principles of the Red Cross. Our counseling is offered without a predetermined conclusion, confidential and independent. Our office also serves as an information center for Institutions, associations and German authorities.

Who is our offer aimed at?

Our advice is aimed at people with:

  • Residence permit
  • Toleration, enforceable obligation to leave the country
  • Spouses, partners or children of the above persons
  • recognized refugees
  • Foreigners staying for political, international law or humanitarian reasons
  • Victims of forced prostitution or human trafficking

In particular, we direct our attention and support to people with illnesses and those released from prison who are required to leave the country or are threatened with deportation.

Voluntary return has priority over deportation and can be requested at any time!

What kind of support do we provide?

As a local return counselling office we cooperate in confidence with other organizations and German authorities who work in the field of Migration, refugees and reintegration. Based on our neutrality and independency as a member of the Red Cross/Red-Crescent society, and with the help of well-trained interpreters we offer a broad spectrum of individual assistance:

  • Purchase of a passport or procuring a passport substitute document
  • Assistance for communication with German authorities
  • Application for financial support and partly out payment
  • Application for additional support in the form of travel assistance or start-up assistance
  • Support for organizing the departure by bus, train and/or aircraft
  • Individual support for vulnerable passengers
  • payment of travel grants
  • Placement in local reintegration projects
  • Research and mediation on the possibilities of Job creation and further
  • support and Offers in the country of origin.
