The house rules in the COA reception centre
Share this article
The Central Agency for the Reception of Asylum Seekers (COA) has house rules that are valid in every reception centre. These house rules are about living together in the reception centre and about safety. Read more about COA's house rules here.
If you do not abide by the house rules, COA:
Will withhold part of your weekly allowance.
Will transfer you to a reception centre with a strict regime. This happens in case of a serious offence.
Will call in the police in case of criminal behaviour.
You have an obligation to report at your reception centre
You must report to COA at least once a week. This is called the obligation to report. This rule applies to all COA locations. You must report at a time and place indicated by COA. You will receive information about your obligation to report at your reception centre. If you have a good reason not to report, please let a COA employee know.
