Temporary protection extended for Ukrainian nationals Share this article LinkedIn Facebook X (Twitter) December 9, 2022 IMPACT — MEDIUM The Belgian government recently extended temporary protection to Ukrainian nationals until April 2024. Key Points: Ukrainian nationals living in Belgium can now extend their temporary protection until March 31, 2024, if they hold a residence card set to expire on or before March 4, 2023. Beginning Jan. 4, 2023, Ukrainian nationals must visit their local town hall to submit a request to receive the extension. Ukrainian nationals who do not submit a request to extend their status at their local town hall will not receive the temporary protection extension. BAL Analysis: Under the directive, temporary protections will cover Ukrainian nationals who fled the war in Ukraine for an extended period of time.
