Liberia, located on the west coast of Africa, is a country that has demonstrated a commitment to protecting refugees. Refugees benefit from a legal framework that largely respects their rights, and the country does not have an encampment policy, allowing refugees to move freely. 

The Liberia Refugee Act (LRA) governs refugee status and identity documentation. Refugees are issued attestations upon registering with the Asylum Committee, and once recognized, they are provided with identity cards. However, the process for obtaining a residence permit remains complicated, costly, and bureaucratic.
