The EMN Glossary enhances understanding and promotes the common use of asylum and migration-related terms and definitions. The terms are available in all languages of the EMN MS, as well as in Norwegian and Georgian, and can be accessed on the main website of the European EMN.

The current online version of the glossary (Version 9.0) was updated in December 2022. It includes approximately 540 terms and concepts reflecting the most recent EU policy on migration and asylum. Amendments to existing entries reflect new concepts and terminology, as well as changes in the use of existing terms introduced through new EU migration and asylum legislation and policy.
