Italy plays an important role in refugee protection in Europe.

The country is one of the major points of arrival for persons seeking protection in Europe, with most of them arriving by sea via the Mediterranean.

In 2023, 157, 651 migrants and refugees originating from 62 countries arrived in Italy by sea, accounting for 71% of all sea arrivals to Southern Europe.

Based upon current arrival trends, it is anticipated that in 2024 Italy will continue to receive the large bulk of all asylum-seekers arriving in Europe by sea as well as an increasing number arriving by land and air.

While there have been fluctuations in levels of arrivals, the drivers of the movements from Africa and the Middle East through the Central Mediterranean and Balkan routes will remain or worsen due to political tensions in the Sub-Saharan region.
