Deportations in Hesse are increasing rapidly: almost 1,100 people affected!
The situation surrounding the issue of migration and asylum in Hesse is currently undergoing major changes. In the first six months of 2025, a total of 1,017 migrants were deported in Hesse, an increase of almost 30 percent compared to the previous year. This is reported by the Hesse Ministry of the Interior and points out the clear line taken when dealing with illegal migration. A total of 1,661 deportations were carried out in 2024, which also represents an increase of around 20 percent compared to 2023. The numbers speak for themselves and make it clear that the state government's deportation policy is being streamlined. hessenschau.de reports that the total number of asylum seekers fell sharply over the same period.
In the first half of 2025, only 4,141 asylum seekers came to Hesse, a decrease of 40 percent compared to the same period last year. Interior Minister Roman Poseck (CDU) emphasizes that Hesse is doing well compared to the rest of the country when it comes to deportations. He sees the need to implement these measures, even if they are often associated with personal hardship. The aim of the state government is to enforce departure obligations and to persuade the countries of origin to take back their compatriots. This line is also being pursued in cooperation with the federal government in order to control migration and reduce illegal entries. [stern.de](https://www.stern.de/gesellschaft/regional/hessen/wandel–mehr-abschiebungen-und-weniger-asyl suchtende-35890788.html) reports that Poseck also supports the role of border controls.
Tolerances and professional prospects
By the end of May 2025, 118 people had received toleration due to existing training or employment relationships. This is a slight increase compared to the previous year, when 108 tolerations were granted. These tolerations are important because they mean a temporary suspension of deportation, but they do not constitute legal residence. The toleration is always granted after careful checks and in accordance with applicable law. It turns out that despite stricter deportation policies, there are also opportunities to integrate and finance career prospects. bpb.de also emphasizes that deportations in Germany are generally carried out by the respective federal states in cooperation with the police in order to comply with the legally established deadlines.
The total number of deportations in Germany also reflects a trend: in 2024, 20,084 people were deported across Germany. This shows that a restrictive orientation in migration policy can be observed not only in Hesse, but also throughout Germany. Deportees often come from countries such as Georgia, Afghanistan or Turkey. It makes clear how complex the issue of migration and integration actually is and how important it is to find a balance between security and humanitarian aspects.
In conclusion, it remains to be said that the debate about migration, integration and the challenges arising from different legal frameworks must also be continued in Hesse. What remains particularly exciting is how these developments affect society and the people affected.
