Legal challenges and logistical hurdles are contributing to a growing deportation backlog in Ireland, with delays in removing failed asylum seekers becoming more pronounced. Despite an increase in deportation orders—rising 180% from 857 in 2023 to 2,403 last year—many individuals remain in the country due to complex international arrangements, security concerns, and infrastructure limitations, including the lack of air access to certain home countries. The situation is compounded by recent incidents, such as a court charge against a man earlier issued with a deportation order. The Irish authorities continue to navigate these challenges amid significant asylum application drops and ongoing debates over immigration and border control policies.
