refugee quotas
Displaced-person admission caps
Refugee quotas are numerical limits on how many refugees a country or region will accept within a given period.
Governments set quotas to control immigration levels, distribute resettlement responsibility among states, or manage resources: The EU proposed mandatory refugee quotas for member nations.
The term often appears in debates over humanitarian obligation versus national capacity.
