IOM Pakistan collects data on the outflows of undocumented Afghan migrants at the Torkham and Chaman border crossing points in an effort to better understand the migration movements of undocumented Afghan migrants returning to Afghanistan from Pakistan. This exercise is part of the European Union funded project “Displacement Tracking Matrix Regional Evidence for Migration Analysis and Policy (DTM REMAP)”.

From 18 June to 01 July 2022, 2,906 undocumented Afghan migrants returned to Afghanistan from Pakistan, including 705 through the Torkham border point and 2,201 through the Chaman border point. During the reporting period, border authorities facilitated the return of 74 individuals due to the lack of legal documentation to remain in Pakistan. Therefore, information concerning these 74 individuals is not included in the report analysis.
