The Home Office is reviewing what may be needed beyond Spring 2025 and an update on the future of the scheme will be provided well before the first visas expire in Spring 2025.
The UK Government supports the Ukrainian government and shares its desire for Ukraine eventually to welcome their people back to help rebuild the country.
We remain steadfast in our support for Ukraine, the Ukrainians now living in the UK and the local authorities supporting them.
