Ukrainians in the EU will be offered to change their status: what refugees should prepare for.

The European Commission has presented recommendations regarding the future legal status of Ukrainians after the expiration of temporary protection in 2027. According to the document, displaced persons will be able to transition to other legal statuses that better correspond to their real situation.

Many Ukrainians who have been in the EU have successfully integrated into European countries, learned the language, found jobs, and enrolled in educational institutions. This has laid the groundwork for changing their legal status, as stated in the official communication from the European Commission.

A New Legal Status System for Ukrainians in the EU

EU states have received recommendations on how to facilitate and ease access to national legal statuses for Ukrainians. Furthermore, the Commission calls on member countries to support the transition to legal migration statuses, regulated by European legislation.

The European Commission recommends Ukrainians who have benefited from temporary protection in the EU to transition to other legal statuses aimed at legal migration and integration into European countries. This will ensure that their status aligns with their real situation and improve access to legal protection and opportunities in the EU.

The new legal status system presented by the European Commission for Ukrainians in the EU involves streamlining the process of obtaining legal migration status and integration into European countries after the expiration of temporary protection in 2027. This opens new opportunities for Ukrainians who have successfully met the challenges they faced while in the European Union.
