Asylum and Migration Overview 2024

The European Migration Network (EMN) has published the Asylum and Migration Overview (AMO) 2024*, presenting a comparative analysis of migration and asylum developments across EMN Member and Observer Countries. Drawing on contributions from 30 National Contact Points (NCPs)[1] and EU-level sources, the report highlights key legal, policy and operational changes during the year 2024.

The year 2024 marked a turning point in EU migration and asylum policy with the adoption of the Pact on Migration and Asylum. Set to apply from June 2026, the Pact introduces a more coordinated framework for managing migration across the EU.

This comes amid ongoing geopolitical instability in the EU’s neighbourhood and beyond, including Russia’s war against Ukraine, which led the Council of the EU to extend temporary protection until March 2026, and multiple regional crises in the Middle East and Africa that have further shaped migration dynamics.

Additional developments at the EU level included the phased enlargement of the Schengen Area to include Bulgaria and Romania, as well as continued investment in the implementation of large-scale IT systems, such as the Entry/Exit System (EES) and the European Travel Information and Authorisation System (ETIAS).

* The EMN Asylum and Migration Overview (AMO) has updated its name for the 2024 edition, to distinguish it from the European Annual Asylum and Migration Report (EAAMR), to be issued by the European Commission under Regulation (EU) 2024/1351 (AMMR) by 15 October 2025.
