Rekordmange syrere forlader frivilligt Danmark
Share this story

Stadig flere udlændinge vælger at rejse frivilligt tilbage til deres hjemlande med økonomisk støtte fra den danske stat. Fra januar til august i år har 618 personer brugt repatrieringsordningen – heraf er 513 rejst frivilligt tilbage til Syrien. Det viser nye tal fra Udlændinge- og Integrationsministeriet.

FAKTA

  • 618 udlændinge brugte repatrieringsordningen fra januar til august 2026.
  • 513 af dem – 83 pct. – rejste frivilligt tilbage til Syrien.
  • I hele 2025 brugte 803 personer ordningen, heraf 605 til Syrien.
  • 2025 var rekordår, og tendensen fortsætter med forøget styrke i 2026.
  • Udlændinge- og integrationsminister er Morten Bødskov.

Rekordtendens fortsætter

Interessen for at rejse frivilligt hjem er vokset markant de senere år. Ifølge Dansk Flygtningehjælp, der rådgiver om mulighederne for at repatriere, benyttede 580 syrere ordningen fra januar til november 2025 – mod blot 93 i hele 2024.

Dansk Flygtningehjælp oplyser, at størstedelen af de syrere, organisationen rådgiver, ønsker en fleksibel udbetaling af den økonomiske støtte. Afgørelsen om at yde repatrieringsstøtte ligger hos de danske myndigheder.

Ministeren: Det skal fortsætte

Udlændinge- og integrationsminister Morten Bødskov glæder sig over udviklingen. Han peger på, at det gavner både Danmark og de udlændinge, der ikke har fundet sig helt til rette her, at flere rejser hjem frivilligt.

Regeringen vil derfor se på, hvordan repatrieringsordningen kan gøres endnu mere målrettet, oplyser ministeren.

Stigende interesse efter 2024

Interessen for at rejse frivilligt hjem er vokset markant de senere år. Ifølge Dansk Flygtningehjælp, der rådgiver om mulighederne for at repatriere, benyttede 580 syrere ordningen fra januar til november 2025 – mod blot 93 i hele 2024.

Dansk Flygtningehjælp oplyser, at størstedelen af de syrere, organisationen rådgiver, ønsker en fleksibel udbetaling af den økonomiske støtte. Afgørelsen om at yde repatrieringsstøtte ligger hos de danske myndigheder.

Hvad er repatrieringsordningen?

Repatrieringsordningen giver udlændinge, der ønsker at rejse varigt tilbage til deres hjemlande, økonomisk støtte efter repatrieringsloven. Ordningen er frivillig og omfatter blandt andet støtte til rejsen og til en ny tilværelse i hjemlandet.

Ordningen har eksisteret i mange år, men brugen er steget markant, efter at forholdene i Syrien har ændret sig. Læs også om de nye regler for udrejsecentre uden for EU, der også vedrører udlændinge uden lovligt ophold.

Konklusion

Med 618 repatrieringer på årets første otte måneder er 2026 på vej til at overgå rekordåret 2025. Særligt syrere benytter ordningen, og regeringen vil nu gøre den endnu mere målrettet. Udviklingen viser, at frivillig tilbagevenden med økonomisk støtte er blevet en stadig vigtigere del af dansk udlændingepolitik.
