Supplementary notes

Third country nationals: nationals with an other nationality than one of the EU member states, Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein or Switzerland. This also includes stateless persons.

A third country national who does not have the right to stay in the Netherlands receives a letter of compulsory return with a date when he or she has to leave the country, either voluntarily and by his or her own arrangement or with a forced remigration process.

The numbers for 2012 and 2013 are provisional and include those who have left the Netherlands as a result of the Dublin Regulation, which identifies the member state responsible for the examination of applications of asylum seekers
