TERRITORY FINAL DESTINATION [2 records]

Record 1 2007-10-26

English

Subject field(s)
  • Citizenship and Immigration
DEF

The removal of aliens considered undesirable or a threat to the state.

CONT

Expulsion ... is an executive act which consists in the implementation of an order that a named person leave the territory of the state.

OBS

Deportation is a procedure under [national] law that is distinct from expulsion in that it refers to aliens who have entered a state in violation of its immigration law, whereas expulsion affects all and primarily legally settled aliens.

OBS

Expulsion differs from extradition in that : 1. there is no request by another state that the person be handed over; 2. the expelled person's continued presence is considered undesirable by the state of residence; 3. an expulsion order is carried out as soon as the person physically leaves the territory, his final destination being no concern of the state expelling him.

PHR

Standars for expulsion in safety and dignity.
