The situation concerning passport issuance and forced passportization in Ukraine and its occupied territories remains complex. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Ukraine states the country's stance towards Russian passports in occupied territories: such documents hold no value within Ukraine. Meanwhile, Ukraine is expediting the passport issuance process for over 80,000 refugees in Poland. Regulations specify that young Ukrainians abroad require military registration documents to obtain passports. Moreover, new regulations automatically register men aged 16-25 in the "Oberig" system when applying for passports. Conflicts continue in occupied territories where locals face pressure, including loss of internet access, unless they accept Russian passports. This forced conversion adds challenges to an already difficult situation for Ukrainians in regions under temporary occupation.

What is Ukraine's stance on Russian passports in occupied territories?

Ukraine considers Russian passports issued in occupied territories invalid and worthless. The Foreign Ministry emphasizes such documents have no standing within Ukraine.

Are there any new regulations for young Ukrainian men obtaining passports abroad?

Yes, 18-year-old Ukrainians abroad must present a military registration document to acquire a passport. Additionally, those aged 16-25 will be automatically registered in the "Oberig" system.

How is Ukraine handling passport issuance for refugees in Poland?

Ukraine has set up processes to issue delayed passports to over 80,000 citizens residing in Poland. This effort is part of Ukraine's initiative to support its citizens abroad.

How are Russian occupiers enforcing passportization in Ukraine's occupied territories?

The occupiers in Ukraine's temporarily occupied regions are employing various pressure tactics, including denial of internet access and essential services, to enforce passportization with Russian documents.

What is Ukraine's government doing to support passport issuance abroad?

Ukraine is establishing mobile issuance offices in countries like the Czech Republic, Germany, and Turkey to facilitate passport and ID issuance for Ukrainian refugees. Existing centers in Poland focus on the same.
