Description
In Saxony-Anhalt, there are numerous support services and facilities for refugees from Ukraine.
The most important contacts for questions regarding residence and the granting of social benefits include the responsible immigration authorities and the social benefits authorities of the districts and independent cities.
Many people from Ukraine do not need a visa for Germany from now until 23.05.2022. Your stay in Germany is therefore permitted in any case until at least 23.05.2022, even if you are in Germany without a visa.
During this time, you can consider whether you would like to opt for a long-term right of residence and which options you would like to use for this:
- You can apply for a residence permit in accordance with Section 24 of the Residence Act.
- You can apply for a residence permit for another purpose, for example to study or work.
- Or you can apply for asylum. This option is not recommended due to the less favorable legal consequences, such as restrictions on taking up employment and the obligation to live in an initial reception facility.
- Proof of identity
- Proof of legal residence in Ukraine
