So, we have prepared for you a short article on this topic.

Extension of the residence permit for Ukrainians in Germany
As of today, it is possible for Ukrainians to extend their stay under § 24 for one more year.
That is, you can claim to extend your permit until 03.04.2024.
Permanent residence permit for Ukrainians in Germany
In order to extend the permit, you need to contact the migration service of your city to obtain a copy of the necessary documents that should be submitted for the extension of the permit. Documents must be collected, completed and submitted at least 3 months prior to the end of your stay, unless otherwise notified.
After two or three years of residence with a residence permit according to § 24 AufenthG, it is currently not possible to apply for a permanent residence permit. Therefore, it is first necessary to switch to another residence permit. It is worth keeping in mind that it is still unclear whether additional opportunities for obtaining a permanent residence permit will be created for refugees from Ukraine.
