Country Analysis TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO
As of November 2023, approximately 44,800 Venezuelan migrants, refugees, and asylum seekers were living in Trinidad and Tobago. This number represented the highest per capita population of Venezuelans in the Caribbean as at 2024, with the islands having a total population of 1.5 million. Most Venezuelan migrants lack access to regular status and are susceptible to increased immigration detention, deportation, and the risk of refoulement, especially for those registered after the implementation of the 2019 Migrant Registration Framework. Children represent a significant proportion of refugees and migrants: 85% of those registered with UNHCR are Venezuelan. Their protection needs are particularly acute.
