In the first quarter of 2025, the European Union recorded a total of 123,905 non-EU citizens who were issued orders to leave European territory, representing an 18.4% increase compared to the same period last year. Additionally, 28,475 people were returned to third countries following these orders, marking a 6.4% rise in returns.
Despite these alarming figures, when compared to the previous quarter, there was a slight reduction of 0.9% in exit orders and 4.3% in returns. This behavior could indicate a possible stabilization or adjustment in the immigration and return policies of some member states, suggesting that the situation may be on a path toward moderation.
Among non-EU citizens with exit orders, the most represented are from Algeria, with 9,995 individuals, followed by Morocco, with 7,450, and Syria, with 6,915. Regarding returns, Georgian citizens top the list with 2,170, followed by Syrians with 2,000, and Albanians with 1,865.
France stands out as the EU country with the highest number of exit orders, totaling 34,545, followed by Germany and Spain, which recorded 17,915 and 16,705 respectively. In terms of returns, France again leads the list with 3,695 people, followed by Germany with 3,625, and Cyprus with 3,470.
This increase in exit orders may reflect the growing political and social pressure regarding migration, as well as the adoption of stricter policies by various European governments. However, the recent decline compared to the previous quarter suggests that it is still too early to draw definitive trends about the future of non-EU migration on the continent. The situation continues to be a topic of analysis and debate, revealing both challenges and opportunities in migration management within the European Union.
