Denmark extends temporary protection status for Ukrainian refugees until March 2027

On 13 June 2025, the Danish Foreign Minister has declared on behalf of the Danish Government that Denmark will extend the temporary protection status for qualifying Ukrainian nationals and residents under the Temporary Protection Directive (TPD) until 4 March 2027. Under the Special Act, eligible individuals (i.e., Ukrainian citizens, individuals recognized as refugees in Ukraine, close family members of a person in Denmark who has been granted a residence permit under the Special Act or a displaced person from Ukraine staying on the Faroe Islands) who arrived in Denmark in the aftermath of the 2022 armed conflict in Ukraine receive various rights and benefits, including work authorization and coverage under public health insurance.
