ENTRY TO UKRAINE BY INVITATION

A very large number of foreign citizens want to visit Ukraine. Most of them come to find their love, some to get some experience in their professional activities, the other majority to get Ukrainian education. In order for a foreigner to freely cross the border of Ukraine and eventually remain on its territories, there must be good reasons for visiting. In any case, the person acting as the host must have a special document that will allow you to invite a foreigner to visit Ukraine and subsequently issue temporary or permanent documents.

So, let's consider the issue of issuing an invitation from an individual for a foreigner in Ukraine, what documents are required for this, what is the preparation process and how this procedure goes.

We note once again an invitation for a foreigner to Ukraine - this is the so-called "application" that can be written by a citizen of Ukraine to help the arrival of a foreign citizen on the territory of Ukraine in the near future. This document can serve as a basis for obtaining a residence permit in Ukraine, both for a temporary period and for a permanent one.

If you decide to host a foreigner and want to create such an invitation, then this process is in principle not difficult, which is carried out by any immigration lawyer. For the legally significant force of the invitation, you need to make a notarization of this application for transferring it to a foreigner to come to Ukraine to work, improve qualifications, or even if a foreigner wants to come to visit you directly.

An invitation is made so that a foreigner can receive a private or guest visa. More often it is sent from relatives so that they can come and visit relatives. Also no less common is an invitation for skilled foreign workers, who are expected by Ukrainian companies to improve the level of professional training of their personnel.

In order to complete the procedure for creating an invitation, your steps should be as follows:

First you should contact the State Migration Service of Ukraine for your territoriality. The next step is to contact a notary public to notarize this application so that it receives the status of an official document.

You are required to provide proof of your identity, namely a passport document. Subsequently, a copy of this document will be attached to the invitation. An additional aspect that can facilitate your actions is that the transfer of documents itself can be carried out not only in a personal order of physical transfer, but also via e-mail to the Ukrainian consulate.

Subsequently, after passing all the pre-specified actions, the documents will be checked and if everything is fine, you will quickly receive a document to invite your friend to Ukraine.

But, if you are a legal entity, then you will still need to submit an application in writing to create an invitation, as well as documents of legal force on the official registration of your institution.
