Directorate of Immigration: Residence permit - General conditions

What documents do I need to submit when I renew a residence permit for refugees?

Generally you do not need to submit supporting documents with a renewal application for a residence permit as a refugee. When applying for a renewal for a child you must submit a parent's consent, if custody is shared.

If necessary, the Directorate of Immigration will ask for further documents for the processing of your application, for example concerning your stay abroad or criminal record.

A digital application and instructions is availble on the website Residence permit renewal for refugees.
