DTenV supports your voluntary return to Syria
Are you considering going back to Syria?
Many Syrians are thinking about returning to Syria. Perhaps you are, too. The choice is entirely up to you. DTenV is willing to support you in your return. Here you can read how we can help you.
We only offer support for permanent return. We do not support temporary return, for example for family visits or to pick up belongings.
Who can apply for help?
Our help is intended for:
- Syrians with a residence permit (temporary or permanent)
- Syrians who are in an asylum procedure
- Syrians residing in the Netherlands without a residence permit
What assistance do we offer?
- Travel organization
We arrange your travel and plane ticket to Syria. This can be for example via Jordan or Qatar to Damascus, depending on current possibilities.
- Money
You will receive 900 euros in cash to cover necessary expenses.
What do you need to return?
- A Syrian passport
- If you have a passport (valid or expired), DTenV can arrange your travel directly.
- A replacement travel document (laissez-passez)
If you do not have a passport, we will discuss the options with you.
How does the procedure work?
There are 4 steps:
1. Submit application
Fill out the application form. Make sure you have the following information on hand:
- Your full name and V number
- Address, zip code and city of your residence in the Netherlands
- Your email address and phone number
2. Check: We check that all required data are present.
3. Interview: A staff member contacts you to discuss your options for return. After submitting your form, you will receive a response from DTenV within 5 working days.
4. Departure for Syria if possible.
Attention: your return is voluntary
Do you choose to leave for Syria voluntarily with our help? If so, this means that you withdraw your asylum application or terminate your residence permit. For this, we will ask you to sign a declaration. You can find this declaration on the IND website.

We work together with partners at home and abroad to make your return as efficient and successful as possible. Do you have any questions? Please feel free to contact us at info@dtv.minvenj.nl.
