The role and significance of administrative procedures for obtaining the status of an internally displaced person and refugee during the martial state and in the post-war period

The paper is devoted to the study of the role and significance of administrative procedures in the conditions of martial law and in the post-war period regarding obtaining the status of an internally displaced person, a refugee, and persons in need of additional or temporary protection. An internally displaced person must obtain the appropriate status and be on the register of internally displaced persons. In order to obtain a certificate on the registration of an internally displaced person, such a person applies with an application to the structural unit for social protection of the population of district, district in the city of Kyiv state administrations, executive bodies of city, district in cities (in case of formation) councils at the place of residence in the order, established by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine. For registration, you must provide: an identity document (passport); a certificate of obtaining an individual tax number. However, in wartime conditions, unfortunately, not all persons who have the right to claim the status of internally displaced persons manage to keep the specified documents, which significantly complicates the administrative procedure for granting the corresponding status. Taking this into account, in our opinion, it would be advisable to expand the list of identity documents that can be used by an internally displaced person in the process of registration of the relevant status, with the exception of a passport, and also to provide the possibility of registration on the basis of only one type of such document. That is, whether on the basis of a passport, whether on the basis of an individual tax number, or a pension certificate, etc. In particular, depending on which document such a person managed to keep. In addition, taking into account the significant outflow of human capital from Ukraine, in connection with the war, in our opinion, in post-war times, the issue of ensuring the greatest possible simplification of administrative procedures for acquiring refugee status may become extremely urgent. In particular, with the aim of encouraging migrants to move to our country. After all, it is quite expected that not all of our citizens who went abroad due to the war will return to Ukraine. In particular, it would be expedient to bring the provisions on the acquisition of refugee status simultaneously for both the refugee and his family members in line with international standards.
