🇮🇹 Italia

Italy asylum accommodation

74 documented sites in the Italian reception system, grouped by the categories the system itself uses. Each links to a sourced profile. Italy runs reception through prefectures rather than a single national operator, which is why extraordinary centres (CAS) outnumber every other kind.

CAS, extraordinary reception centres · 44

Prefecture-contracted accommodation, opened as an emergency measure and now the largest part of the Italian system. The single biggest group here.

First-reception centres (CPA / CARA) · 12

Hotspots · 4

Arrival and identification points for people rescued or landed at sea, intended for short stays rather than accommodation.

Italian-run centres in Albania · 2

Operated by Italy on Albanian territory under the 2023 protocol. Outside Italy geographically, inside the Italian system legally.

Other sites · 2

CPR, immigration detention · 10

NOT accommodation. A CPR detains people pending removal from Italy, and its places are never counted as accommodation capacity.

Coordinates are town or street level where an exact address is not published, and every site records its source. Closed and contested sites stay on the map and are marked as such rather than deleted.
