DOCUMENT / PDF / 1 MB

On 3 January 2018, Pakistan granted Afghan refugees in Pakistan a residence extension until the end of January. Some 1.39 million Afghan refugees are registered in Pakistan, as well as an estimated one million unregistered Afghans. If returns are enforced, it is likely to have a major impact on shelter, protection, and food needs. However, previous deadlines have been threatened but not enforced, reducing the probability of the risk.
