#Temporary Protection

Ukrainian Ambassador to Poland Vasyl Bodnar explained the reduction in the number of Ukrainians under temporary protection by 40,000 over six months: the transition to the CUKR card and the unfavorable atmosphere became the main reasons.

The Consular Service of Ukraine's MFA clarified which documents confirm a lawful departure from the country for women applying for temporary protection in the EU. The main proof is a stamp in the passport or an SBG certificate, and the departure date must not exceed 90 days.

Ukraine's Foreign Ministry reported that, following the EU Council decision of 30 July 2026, it received around 20 inquiries regarding difficulties with temporary protection. Military registration documents are required only when the border crossing cannot be confirmed otherwise; unified European Commission recommendations are expected at the end of September.

German Foreign Minister Johann Wadefuhl stated that Ukrainian men of draft age in Germany should return home, and that Berlin is ready to share data on them with Kyiv via social benefits, registration records, and residence permits.

The EU Council has identified three categories of Ukrainians who may be expelled from the Schengen Area first: illegal entry, criminal offenses, and document forgery. The temporary protection status until 2028 does not protect against these measures.

SBCU confirmed: border guards do not check the 'Reserve+' app for women when leaving Ukraine. No restrictions on women's departure have been established by legislation, the service spokesperson stated.

The Ukrainian Embassy in Germany advises obtaining a border crossing stamp in the passport: without the mark, problems may arise when applying for temporary protection in the EU under the new Council Decision 2026/1912.

European Commission spokesperson Lammert stated that the EU Council's decision on temporary protection makes no distinction by gender: Ukrainian women liable for military service will also have to prove they are not evading service.

The Speaker of the Czech Chamber of Deputies, Tomio Okamura, called for the complete abolition of the temporary protection regime and all payments to Ukrainian refugees, demanding that the unemployed return to their homeland after the war.
