Also available in:

This national report deals with the question of whether international protection granted to a person in Austria may be withdrawn if he or she travels back to his or her country of origin or establishes contact with the authorities there. It enumerates the precise legal provisions governing the withdrawal of asylum status and subsidiary protection status; these provisions set out the specific conditions for withdrawing either status and specify the consequences resulting from such withdrawal. The report presents one full case study and mentions specific case examples relating to the withdrawal of protection status, to illustrate official decisions in administrative practice and court rulings.
