Title: Country Report: France

Summary: The previous update of the report was published in February 2018. Asylum reform: Law n. 2018-778 of 10 September 2018 brought a significant number of changes to the Ceseda. Asylum procedure: Access to the territory: The practice of systematic refusal of entry of persons arriving at the Italian land border continues, despite widespread criticism and condemnation by Administrative Courts. The Border Police has implemented similar measures of push backs on the Spanish land border in the course of 2018. Following the 2018 reform, the right to a "full day" (jour franc) protecting the person against removal can no longer be claimed at land borders. Accelerated procedure: If an applicant lodges an asylum claim more than 90 days after entering the French territory, his/her claim will be processed under accelerated procedure and reception conditions can be refused. Applicants under accelerated procedure on grounds of safe country of origin, subsequent application or threat to public order lose their right to remain on French territory from the moment of notification of a negative decision from OFPRA. They may nevertheless request suspensive effect before the Administrative Court for their appeal before the CNDA. Appeal: If an application for legal aid is lodged in view of introducing an appeal against the first instance decision, the time taken to lodge this application will be substracted from the onemonth deadline to lodge the appeal itself. The decision of the CNDA, when taken after a hearing, enters into force as soon as it is published. Reception conditions: Freedom of movement: Asylum seekers must report to and remain in the region allocated to them by OFII, even if no housing is granted to them. Asylum seekers will automatically lose their reception conditions in case they do not report to or remain in that region, or if they do not abide by the requests of the authorities. Detention of asylum seekers: Grounds for detention: Asylum seekers in Dublin procedure can be detained at any moment if there is a "significant risk of absconding", as now defined by the law. Duration of detention: A person can remain in administrative detention for a maximum of 90 days, up from 45 days prior to the reform. Content of international protection: Residence permit: Beneficiaries of subsidiary protection and their family members will be granted a 4-year residence permit. Family reunification: Unaccompanied children granted international protection can be reunited with their brothers and sisters when coming with the parents.
