2. Eligibility

To be recognised as a refugee, you must:

have left the country you’re a national of or, if you’re stateless, the country you usually live in
be unable to go back because you fear persecution
be unable to live safely in another part of the country you left
have failed to get protection from authorities in the country you left

This persecution must be because of your:

race
religion
nationality
political opinion
membership of a particular social group that puts you at risk because of the social, cultural, religious or political situation in your country - eg your gender, gender identity, sexual orientation
