Which documents are needed?

An important temporary-protection condition

From August 5, 2026, Article 2 links the grant of temporary protection to compliance with military obligations in Ukraine and proof where applicable, without prejudice to EU law and fundamental rights.

Before applying

The EU decision does not prescribe a single document list. Ask the country authority about the documents, proof format and translation requirements.

Exception

Article 2 does not apply to people who held temporary protection in a given EU Member State by August 4, 2026 and continuously retain that status in the same Member State after that date.
