Book excerpt: The 2022 Global Religious Recognition Report (GRRR 2022) is the world's first religious freedom report fully dedicated to the subtopic area of religious recognition and registration issues, covering the period June 2021 to June 2022. The Report uses the body of terms and concepts being developed by Cometan through his doctoral research to interpret the registration and recognition systems of all countries and territories to determine conditions for recognition of religion or belief (RoRB). Each country is examined according to the following criteria: the mandatoriness of registration, registration policy, claims made to FoRB, key restriction tools imposed via the registration system, and whether or not basic religious activities are free to be conducted without entanglement in registration procedures. Each country and territory is then assigned a label corresponding to one of the categories of the Spectrum of Religious Recognition (SRR). The aim of the Report is to exposure how widespread issues involving recognition and registration are in the world, to provide recommendations for how countries can ascend the SRR by dissolving restriction registration policies and halting certain repressive practices, and to provide a yearly monitoring report specialising in recognition and registration law to inform the discourse surrounding the correlation of these issues with conditions for freedom of religion or belief (FoRB).
