* The results for 2016 are not completely comparable to figures from previous years due to methodology changes and technical developments. The precision of the results is limited due to discrepancies in connection with registration and reporting of those seeking protection. ** The figures connected to migration data from registration authorities include registration adjustments, which were conducted due to the introduction of the personal tax ID number. The migration numbers from Germany from 2008 to 2011 are therefore only partly comparable with the respected previous or following year, according to the source.
