Information for non-Ukrainian citizens fleeing Ukraine

This document can only be extended if you can explain to the immigration officer why you cannot return to your country of origin yet (for example you could not arrange your trip yet, but arrangements are underway or you apply for a special residence permit in Hungary but the procedure is still ongoing). [...] You can travel to other countries only if you comply with the visa rules of that country (for example, if you want to go to Spain, you have to have a valid passport and you have to contact the Spanish embassy to see how you can get a visa). [...] If you do not have the possibility to apply for a residence permit, but you cannot return to your country of origin, because it is not safe for you (for example, you were or could be a victim of a human right violation if you returned) you should have the right to apply for asylum (refugee status) in Hungary. [...] In this case, you can expect that you will get an expulsion decision (“kiutasítás” in Hungarian) where the immigration office orders you to leave the territory of the European Union. [...] If you don’t leave the country by the deadline and you don’t ask for an extension, or the immigration office believes that you won’t leave the country voluntarily, it can order your deportation.
