Afghan women and women's rights activists stress the necessity of creating conditions for the registration of asylum applications from within the country. This group is under severe pressure from the caretaker government and demands that host countries act in a way that allows applications to be submitted without traveling to neighboring countries.
Financial Challenges and Travel Risks
Asylum-seeking women point to the difficulties of crossing borders and the challenges of settling in new countries, stating that this process incurs significant costs. One media employee of the Republic who was expelled from Pakistan with his family due to the non-renewal of his visa states that he lost all his assets during the waiting period and was forced to return to the country.

The recent announcement by the UK regarding the resumption of the resettlement plan for migrants in collaboration with the UN on September 28 has created hope for vulnerable women. However, the lack of financial resources to obtain visas for neighboring countries such as Pakistan, Iran, Turkey, and Tajikistan is a fundamental obstacle to utilizing these plans. The costs associated with obtaining visas and renewing residency exceed the financial capacity of many families.
The Voice of Women Human Rights Activists
One women's rights activist named Tarnam Sidi pointed to strict regulations such as the prohibition of travel for women without a male guardian and called on international organizations and host countries to activate the process of reviewing and accepting applications within the country. She believes that after acceptance, the transfer process must be managed effectively.
The restrictions imposed on women's education and work since the month of Asad in 1400 have forced many to leave the country. Some of these actions can cost them their lives. For example, on September 14 of this year, five members of a family, including four daughters and their mother, died of thirst while traveling through smuggling routes between Iran and Afghanistan. This incident has been confirmed by diplomatic sources and human rights organizations.
