UNHCR and its partners provide basic assistance to asylum-seekers and refugees through a needs assessment at the point of registration. It is important to fill out all application forms as completely and clearly as possible so that your needs are understood.

Vulnerable cases are prioritized in accordance with UNHCR criteria. This means that not everyone may be eligible for basic assistance.

UNHCR and its partners continuously work to increase capacity and resources to support asylum-seekers and refugees in Trinidad and Tobago.
