Ukraine Work and Employment visas (Type C for up to 3 months, Type D for longer periods) are employer-driven and require sponsorship from a Ukrainian company. The process involves work permits, registration with immigration authorities and potentially a Temporary Residence Permit. Fees, timelines and eligibility vary significantly based on your occupation and job offer.

This one needs expert guidance

  • Work visas require employer sponsorship and prior work permit approval from Ukrainian authorities.
  • Processing can take 2 to 5 weeks after all documents are submitted, with additional checks possible.
  • Government fees are higher than tourist visas and vary by visa category and duration.
  • Our immigration consultants evaluate your employment offer and map the correct pathway for your profile.
