If an applicant wishes to end his/her application for international protection, (s)he has to complete a form in which (s)he formally declares that (s)he renounces the application for international protection. An applicant renounces the application for international protection on his own responsibility and of his own free will. No-one can force the applicant to do so.
The CGRS will immediately end the asylum procedure when it receives the applicant’s declaration of renunciation. The applicant will then receive a decision stating that the application has been explicitly withdrawn.
