The Council of Ministers approved Resolution No. 29-A/2022 with the aim of establishing measures for granting temporary protection to people displaced from Ukraine as a result of the armed conflict. 

 

Given the specialty and urgency to act in a pragmatic way, the proofs available to certify the eligibility conditions are simplified and softened, including the exemption of presenting a criminal record certificate. 

 

Citizens of Ukraine and their family members - even if of other nationalities - are granted temporary protection with the automatic granting of a residence permit for a period of 1 year (with possible renewal). 

 

In all protection requests, the Immigration and Borders Service (SEF) will automatically communicate to all entities and bodies, namely for the purpose of automatic attribution of: 

  • social security id 

  • taxpayer number, and 

  • national health system id. 

 

In addition, citizens covered by the protection regime may benefit from: 

  • Adequate accommodation 

  • Support and means of subsistence 

  • Medical assistance with emergency care and basic treatment 

  • Access to public education for minors 

  • Social benefits under the non-contributory regime
