IOM Pakistan collects data on the ou lows of undocumented Afghan migrants at the Torkham and Chaman border crossing points in an effort to be er understand the migration movements of undocumented Afghan migrants returning to Afghanistan from Pakistan. This exercise is part of the European Union funded project “Regional Evidence for Migration Analysis and Policy (REMAP)”. From 3 to 16 January 2021, 197 undocumented Afghan migrants returned to Afghanistan, including 57 through the Torkham border point and 140 through the Chaman border point. During the reporting period, border authorities facilitated the return of 92 individuals due to the lack of legal documentation to remain in Pakistan. Therefore, information concerning these 92 individuals is not included in the report analysis.
