Migration Office: NO SET PROCEDURE FOR 5-YEAR CONTINUOUS RESIDENCE IMMIGRATION PERMISSION YET IN UKRAINE.

Last amendments in law on immigration in Ukraine that came into force since 20.10.2023!

For example, euphoria with these five years nonstop living in Ukraine (continuous residence) and applying for immigration permission and after getting permanent residence permit.

You can relax, because for today there is no any procedure for applying on such reason like five years nonstop living in Ukraine (continuous residence). 

When procedure will be worked out, you can apply under items 4-12 article 4 prescribed by The Law of Ukraine "On the Legal Status of Foreigners and Stateless Persons". On practice these are mostly cases about work permits and volunteering.

Nonstop living in Ukraine (continuous residence) means having temporary residence permit and being out of Ukraine on personal reasons not more than 180 calendar days per year (it is not a violation of the requirement of continuous residence if a person goes abroad on a business trip, study, vacation, treatment on the recommendation of a relevant medical institution or changes his/her place of residence in Ukraine).

So, when the procedure will be ready – migration office can’t tell.

Ask the right people for information!
