The Dutch government introduced changes for refugees from Ukraine. From November 1, you need to have a special sticker-mark in your passport or O-document confirming the status of temporary protection. This is reported by the Dutch government portal.


The corresponding sticker will be a confirmation of the official status of temporary protection and will allow you to legally get a job.


Employment of Ukrainians in the Netherlands


Since the laws of the Netherlands provide for the employment of foreign citizens only with the permission of the employer, a special simplified procedure has been developed for Ukrainian refugees.


From April 1, employers who hired Ukrainians did not have to obtain a permit. The term of such relaxation was valid until October 31. During this period, the government provided Ukrainians with the opportunity to issue all the necessary documents.


How to get a sticker or O-document?


A special stamp sticker in a passport or O-document is issued by the Immigration and Naturalization Service of the Netherlands (Immigratie-en Naturalisatiedienst, IND). For their registration, it is necessary to apply to the department by October 31. You must have documents confirming your identity (passport).


If you are in Amsterdam, you must come to the address: Pieter Calandlaan, 1.

To find out the details, you can contact the number +31880430430.


We will remind you! Earlier, the Immigration and Naturalization Service of the Netherlands reported that from now on, the term for processing an application for refugee status will be from 6 to 15 months. More details at the link.
