Które niemieckie landy przyjmują Ukraińców we wrześniu 2025: aktualne informacje dla migrantów przymusowych

Germany continues to accept Ukrainian refugees, distributing them across different regions and specialised camps, each of which has its own characteristics. It is important to note that re-registration at one's own request is practically impossible, except in clearly defined situations. Therefore, in order to choose the best conditions for yourself, it is worth studying the available options in advance.

For detailed and up-to-date information on camps for displaced persons as of September 2025, we recommend that you familiarise yourself with the material.

Camp for displaced persons and the main conditions of its operation

Camps for displaced persons in Germany are the main reception and distribution points for refugees. It is here that decisions are made about which region of the country a person will be sent to. Usually, you can choose the region, but there are exceptions when you will be sent to another federal state if there are no vacancies in your region.

You can only choose a camp at the time of entry. Therefore, we recommend choosing the one that is most convenient for you to reach. It is important to remember that once you have registered in one region, you will not be accepted in another.

Emigration to Germany on the basis of temporary protection status requires residence in the region to which they are assigned. To move to another region, you must have a valid reason, such as:

– employment;

– marriage;

– maintenance of minor children.

The housing situation in Germany remains difficult. Many migrants live in temporary accommodation such as hangars, dormitories and converted sports halls. Although the temporary protection programme under ‘Paragraph 24’ entitles migrants to housing, it cannot fully resolve this issue for more than a million migrants.

Important! Camps for displaced persons operate 24/7.
