The digital residence permit, introduced in January this year, is valid until March 4, 2024. However, due to the European Union's decision to extend temporary protection for people fleeing the war in Ukraine for at least one more year, the Department of Migration plans to start replacing it in late November.
The new permits for Ukrainian refugees will be valid until March 4, 2025.
