Mdova extends temporary protection for Ukrainian refugees for another year

This was reported by Ukrinform with reference to the General Inspectorate for Migration of Mdova.

"Displaced persons from Ukraine, who were granted temporary protection before March 1, 2024, will automatically have their identity documents extended until March 1, 2025, without the need to report to the offices of the General Inspectorate for Migration," the statement said.

As noted, the decision "is a demonstration of Mdova's sidarity with Ukraine and the Ukrainian pele." This was done in accordance with the decision of the EU Council, which extended temporary asylum for Ukrainians until March 2025.

It is noted that citizens arriving from Ukraine now need to have a valid travel document, that is, one that has not expired. For adults, one of the flowing documents is required: a valid national passport for traveling abroad, an identification card/ID card, or a valid internal passport.
