What exactly is this: asylum, temporary protection, humanitarian admission, resettlement or another protection mechanism?
Refugee resettlement: refugees who fled their country of origin and are receiving temporary protection in a neighbouring country's camps etc. are moved to a third country that has agreed to accept them and are allowed to settle there. Third-country resettled refugees are cited as an example of Long-Term Resident (Teijusha) status holders.

第三国定住とは、出身国から避難し、隣国の難民キャンプ等で一時的な庇護を受けている難民を、当初庇護を求めた国から新たに受入れに合意した第三国に移動させ、定住を認めるものであり、難民の自発的帰還及び第一次庇護国への定住と並ぶ難民問題の恒久的解決策の一つと位置付けられています。
