New Zealand will offer residency to Ukraine war refugees who arrived under a special visa unveiled last year, the government announced Saturday.

Holders of the Special Ukraine Visa who are granted the document before March 15, 2024, will be able to apply for residency in New Zealand, the government said on its website. The 12-month permit first opened for applicants in March 2022 and was extended by a further one year in February.
