If your application is approved, you will receive a residence permit. There are three different forms of protection for refugees in Germany: You can apply for asylum as a person entitled to asylum<i>r, as a recognized<\/i>be classified as a refugee or as a person entitled to subsidiary protection. In addition, the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF) can issue a national ban on deportation under certain conditions. In this case, you will also receive a residence permit. On this page you can find out which rights are associated with the respective residence permits.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><b>1. entitlement to asylum (\u00a7 25 para. 1 Residence Act)<\/b><b><\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Asylum is granted to people who, in their home country <\/span><b>politically persecuted by the state or state agencies<\/b><span class=\"s1\"> become.
