The measure ends on 4 September 2025 and third-country nationals with temporary residence permit in Ukraine can no longer benefit from the rights related to temporary protection.
The measure was in place since April 2024, until the Council of State confirmed that temporary protection could be ended for this group of third-country nationals. After 4 September 2025, unless they have a residence permit based on another title, a pending asylum procedure or have applied for regular residence permit, third-country nationals must leave the Netherlands within 4 weeks.
People who object to the return decision are allowed to stay in the Netherlands pending the appeal and can continue to benefit from temporary protection rights even after 4 September 2025.
