Luxembourg's Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs has confirmed that Ukrainian refugees who are beneficiaries of temporary protection and who have found employment in the Grand Duchy can now apply for residency.

According to the ministry, beneficiaries of temporary protection in Luxembourg (status valid until 4 March 2024) who are carrying out a salaried activity in the country with a monthly salary equivalent to at least the unskilled minimum wage, as well as their family members, are eligible to submit an application to the Directorate of Immigration to obtain a residence permit.

To be eligible, applicants must not live in state-run shelters such as those managed by the National Reception Office (ONA). By obtaining the residence permit, they will also lose the status of temporary protection.

Information on the conditions to be met and the procedure to follow to apply for a residence permit is available on Guichet.lu: https://guichet.public.lu/en/citoyens/immigration/ukraine/changement-statut-beneficiaire-protection-temporaire-ukraine.html.
