San Marino has extended temporary residency permits until 31 December 2027 for Ukrainian citizens who fled the war. According to San Marino RTV, the measure allows for the renewal of permits already issued, provided that housing is available and that the holder does not meet the requirements for other types of residence permit.
The right to work, including occasional employment, remains guaranteed across all sectors. For jobs not covered by current regulations, approval from the Labour Commission (Commissione per il Lavoro) will be required.
The standard number of permits has been set at 80, with the State Congress (Congresso di Stato) able to increase this figure by up to 5% on a monthly basis.
It will remain the Congress’s responsibility to declare the eventual end of the emergency. In that case, permits will remain valid for a further 30 days. Specific rules are also in place for Ukrainian citizens arriving from countries outside the Schengen area.
