The number of refugees from Ukraine who have been granted temporary protection in Ireland is up 16% on the same period last year, according to the Central Statistics Office.
It found there were 109,566 people from Ukraine last month with temporary status compared to 94,164 a year earlier.
However, the figures show that of those individuals, 75% are active on the tax or social protection system which indicates about a quarter may have left the country.
Emma Lane Spollen, of the Ukraine Civil Society Forum, said she welcomed "the new data released today by the CSO which shows that the number of people from Ukraine granted the right to live here temporarily and still residing in the State continues to fall. 25% of those who did live here have left".
She added: "The absolute numbers living here has fallen by 1,640 since January 2024, and this despite an average of 186 people arriving each week.
"This new data shows that there is an uptick in the numbers of people leaving Ireland as they struggle to find somewhere to live even though there is plenty of work."
Analysis of where people from Ukraine are living
The CSO has also provided an analysis of where people from Ukraine have been living in Ireland.
It found 1,866 were living in the Dublin's north inner city, while 1,010 were living in the south inner city.
