As required by Article 9 of the Regulation (EC) 862/2007, Member States must report to Eurostat on the data sources used, the reasons for the selection of these sources and the effects of the selected data on the quality of the statistics. Member States shall provide Eurostat with all the information necessary to evaluate the quality, comparability and completeness of the statistical information. The reference document used for assessing the compliance of the concepts and definitions in this metadata file is the document Dublin statistics - Eurostat Technical guidelines to Dublin statistics (see Annex). |

Dublin procedure
The Dublin procedure means determining the state responsible for examining an asylum application. The procedure is based on the Dublin Regulation, which binds the EU Member States directly. According to the Regulation, the responsibility for examining your asylum application belongs to the state:
This state has to take you back and examine the asylum application that you have submitted in Finland. If some other Member State is responsible for examining your application for asylum, your application will not be examined in Finland. Instead, you will be refused entry and sent back to that Member State. In such a case, we will not investigate during your asylum interview whether there are grounds for granting you an asylum. Instead, you will return to your reception centre to wait for a transfer to the country that will handle your application.

The text of Art.4 of the Regulation (EC) 862/2007 on Migration and international protection refers in general to statistics based on the number of persons and not on the number of applications. However, the article describing the 'Dublin' statistics (Art.4.4) refers to statistics based on the number of requests. Commission services recommend that Art.4.4 (more precisely 4.4.a, 4.4.c and 4.4.d) is interpreted as referring to the number of persons concerned by each request, decision and transfer. |

The reporting unit convention of the Dublin statistics follows two main principles:
For the categories 'Requests based on a Eurodac hit' and 'Decisions based on a Eurodac hit' Member States shall report all persons covered by these requests/decisions i.e. including children below 14 who are not fingerprinted. This will ensure that data based on Eurodac hits will be in line with all other statistics subject of this reporting. |

Processing of personal data and data protection at the Finnish Immigration Service
Personal data are data that concern a person who is or can be identified. For example, they include:
Data protection principles guide the processing of personal data and protect an individual’s privacy when personal data are processed. Processing includes everything from planning the processing of personal data to deleting the data, and also viewing them.
The Finnish Immigration Service only processes personal data for a legitimate reason. For example, personal data are needed for processing matters related to residence, citizenship, international protection and the reception of persons applying for international protection in compliance with legal requirements, as explained in detail below. Some of our services are used on a voluntary basis. Personal data are also processed when dealing with personnel or financial matters, for example.
Sections 3 and 5 of the Act on the Processing of Personal Data in the Field of Immigration Administration (615/2020)* contain information about the other controllers of the case management system for immigration matters (UMA). For information about how these controllers process personal data and data protection in their activities, please contact each controller.

Data may also be obtained from publicly available sources, including open websites and registers.

Disclosure of data for scientific research purposes
It is possible to request data from the data systems and registers of the Finnish Immigration Service for the purpose of conducting scientific research. Researchers can submit a document and information request (https://migri.fi/en/document-and-information-requests) or an application for a research permit to the Finnish Immigration Service.
In general, information and documents concerning customers of the Finnish Immigration Service are kept secret under section 24(1)(24) of the Act on the Openness of Government Activities, unless it is obvious that disclosure of information from them will not compromise the safety of the person concerned or his or her friends or family. On a case-to-case basis, the Finnish Immigration Service may grant permission to gain access to a secret document for purposes of scientific research, statistical compilations or the preparation of official plans or studies, if it is obvious that access will not violate the interests protected by the secrecy provision.
If you wish to gain access to confidential information for the purpose of scientific research, you need to apply for a research permit. The application must contain your basic details and specify, in as much detail as possible, which information you need and for what purpose. Your application must contain a research plan in which you describe what data you need and why.
The Finnish Immigration Service will decide whether a research permit can be granted. When evaluating the research permit application, the Finnish Immigration Service will consider the freedom of science, the legal basis for granting a research permit, the legislation governing the disclosure of data, and the appropriateness of granting a research permit. Research permits are granted for a fixed term, and they may also be cancelled if there are grounds for doing so.
As a rule, the Finnish Immigration Service does not grant access to secret documents for thesis projects conducted for a university degree. Thesis projects are not regarded as scientific research within the meaning of section 28 of the Act on the Openness of Government Activities. If you need data for your thesis, you can submit a document request (https://migri.fi/en/document-and-information-requests).
Applying for research permit
Research permit application
If you need confidential information from the registers of the Finnish Immigration Service for the purposes of scientific research, you have two options:
As a rule, the application should contain the following attachments:
Research plan
The research plan will bind the data disclosed from a register to a specific research project. The purpose of the research plan is to specify, in as much detail as possible, the information requested and the reason why this information is necessary for the purpose and goals of the study.
The research plan must contain at least the following information:
If the data to be disclosed for scientific research purposes on a large scale involves processing of personal data relating to criminal convictions and offences or special categories of personal data, such as information about a person’s ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs or sexual orientation, a derogation from the rights of data subjects requires, as laid down in section 31 of the Data Protection Act (1050/2018), that a data protection impact assessment referred to in Article 35 of the Data Protection Regulation be carried out or that codes of conduct in accordance with Article 40 of the Data Protection Regulation be complied with. Submit a data protection impact assessment or a code of conduct in writing to the Office of the Data Protection Ombudsman and to the Finnish Immigration Service before the application is reviewed.
Submitting a research permit application
Send your research permit application and the necessary attachments to the Registry of the Finnish Immigration Service.
Contact details of the Registry:
email: migri@migri.fi
postal address: PO Box 10, 00086 Maahanmuuttovirasto
Enquiries about research permits should be sent to the agency's Legal Service: oikeuspalvelu@migri.fi.
Service of the research permit decision and the fees applied
If you wish to receive the decision on your research permit application by email, state so in your application and include the email address to which the decision should be sent. If you do not give your consent for electronic service of notice, specify the postal address to which the decision should be sent.
If you are not satisfied with the research permit decision, you can appeal the decision to an administrative court. Remember to mention your municipality of residence in your research permit application so that we can provide you with the correct appeal instructions.
Decisions on research permits are free of charge. If you request documents or information from us, we may in some cases charge you the costs of responding to your request.
