OTTENERE

In 2025, Germany will continue to provide comprehensive support to refugees from Ukraine, including housing. This is one of the most important needs for newcomers, as stable housing is the basis for integration and starting a new life.

Let's look at what housing options are currently available, how assistance to IDPs is organized in the new year, and what resources can be useful in finding them.

Free housing and government support for Ukrainians in Germany

For many Ukrainian families, housing in Germany begins with initial reception centers, which provide a temporary roof over their heads. However, there are also longer-term solutions in the form of social housing and financial support.

Social benefits

There are special social support programs for those who cannot afford to pay rent on their own:

• Bürgergeld - for able-bodied persons registered with the Jobcenter.

• Sozialhilfe - for pensioners and people who cannot work.

In 2025, the amount of payments is as follows:

• Single adult - 563 euros per month.

• Married couples - 506 euros for each.

• Children under 5 years old - 357 euros.

These funds can cover housing costs and basic needs.

Refugee centers

The first step for newcomers is to apply to the initial reception centers. These institutions provide:

• Temporary accommodation.

• Food and nutrition.

• Medical care.

• Legal advice.

After registration, refugees receive temporary protection in accordance with §24 of the Residence Act, which allows them to:

• Stay in Germany legally.

• To work.

• Receive social services.

• Provide children with access to education.

Detailed information on the work of the centers can be found on the Germany4Ukraine portal.

Permanent housing: social programs and resources

After staying in the centers, refugees can start looking for long-term housing. Here are some popular options:

Social housing

These are subsidized apartments with affordable rents. To rent, you need a work permit (WBS), which is issued to people with low incomes. You need to apply for a WBS at the local authorities.

Volunteer initiatives

Organizations such as Caritas and Diakonie offer housing through charitable programs. In many cases, they also help with paperwork or find affordable options through their local offices.

How to find housing in Germany: key resources

Online platforms

• Germany4Ukraine is a resource with a database of temporary and permanent housing.

• Helfende Wände - helps to find housing, taking into account the special needs of refugees.

• ImmobilienScout24 and eBay Kleinanzeigen are popular platforms for finding housing in Germany.

Charitable organizations

Local churches and initiatives provide temporary housing or help with the search for permanent housing. They can also help you to apply for WBS or register for social assistance.

Social media

Telegram and Facebook groups have become effective channels for finding housing. They often publish current announcements and you can also leave your request.

Important aspects of housing search

Regional peculiarities

Each federal state of Germany has its own rules and assistance programs. Therefore, it is recommended to familiarize yourself with the information on official websites or consult with local authorities in advance.

Documents

To receive social housing or assistance, you must have:

1. Refugee status (§24 of the Residence Act).

2. Proof of income or eligibility for WBS.

Tips for a successful search for housing in Germany

1. Start with online resources. Use specialized platforms for refugees because they are adapted to your needs.

2. Collaborate with volunteers. Charitable organizations often offer more options than government programs.

3. Follow local announcements. A lot of useful information can be found through social networks or bulletin boards.

Germany has created an effective support system for refugees from Ukraine, offering a variety of housing options and financial assistance. The use of online platforms, cooperation with charitable organizations, and knowledge of local regulations will help you adapt faster and find suitable housing.

We remind you! Ukrainians have legal ways to switch from Paragraph 24 to a residence permit in Germany. Read about the specifics of each option, requirements, documents, and important nuances for a successful change of residence status in our previous article.
