How many people from Ukraine have arrived in the Netherlands since the war broke out?
Since 24 February 2022, over 27 thousand people arriving from Ukraine have registered with a Dutch municipality. Those coming from Ukraine may register at a municipality provided they have Ukrainian nationality. People with other nationalities are also allowed to register if they are able to prove they were holders of a valid residence permit for Ukraine directly before the invasion. Around half of all refugees are adult women and over a third are children. This is evident from provisional figures released by Statistics Netherlands (CBS) on 7 April 2022.
