Article L531-41 of the French Code governing the entry and residence of foreign nationals and the right of asylum

An application for reconsideration is an asylum application submitted after a final decision has been taken on a previous application.
The fact that the applicant has explicitly withdrawn his previous application, or that the final decision has been taken pursuant to articles L. 531-37 or L. 531-38, or that the applicant has left the territory, even to return to their country of origin, does not prevent the application of the provisions of the first paragraph.
These provisions apply without prejudice to Regulation (EU) No 604/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article L531-41


Constitue une demande de réexamen une demande d’asile présentée après qu’une décision définitive a été prise sur une demande antérieure.
Le fait que le demandeur ait explicitement retiré sa demande antérieure, ou que la décision définitive ait été prise en application des articles L. 531-37 ou L. 531-38, ou encore que le demandeur ait quitté le territoire, même pour rejoindre son pays d’origine, ne fait pas obstacle à l’application des dispositions du premier alinéa.
Ces dispositions s’appliquent sans préjudice du règlement (UE) n° 604/2013 du Parlement européen et du Conseil, du 26 juin 2013.
