The Ukraine Response Team is processing a high volume of Online Temporary Protection Renewal (OTPR) applications, which may cause delays. Once approved, applicants will receive a new Irish Residency Permit (IRP) card and Temporary Protection certificate.
If an employee’s IRP card expires before they receive a new one, they are legally allowed to remain in the State under their current IRP conditions, provided they show proof of renewal application.
All renewals are processed online. Applicants receive an email receipt with a submission date and OTPR number, which serves as proof of permission while awaiting a decision. If approved, they’ll receive a confirmation email with their name and OTPR number, which can be used as proof of registration until the new IRP card and certificate arrive.
