Certificate of crossing the border
A border crossing certificate is a document that foreigners and stateless persons often need. Sometimes Ukrainians also need it. If you need such a certificate, you can contact the “Prikhodko&Partners” law office, because we are ready to provide legal support for its production. We specialize in migration law and know how to make a request to the border service in order to receive information about the crossing of the state border of Ukraine by a specific person. We invite you to familiarize yourself with this service in more detail and learn about its key advantages that we provide.
A border crossing stamp in a foreign passport
Foreigners and stateless persons who come to Ukraine must receive confirmation in the form of a stamp in their foreign passport. It contains information about check-in with the corresponding date. Such a border crossing stamp is affixed at any checkpoint by the State Border Service of Ukraine.
The mentioned stamp is very important from a legal point of view, because its presence in the foreign passport of a foreigner or a stateless person indicates the legal crossing of the state border and legal entry into the territory of Ukraine. Placing this mark is included in the unified border crossing database, which contains information on the entry and exit of foreigners and stateless persons. The base is called “ARKAN”. It stores the specified information for a long time.
When do foreigners and stateless persons need a border crossing certificate?
In most cases, such a certificate of crossing the state border is required from foreigners and stateless persons, if the mark in the foreign passport is not legible. If it is visually impossible to read or you need to know about crossing borders using old passports that have lost their legal validity, you need this certificate.
So, cases of presenting a border crossing certificate can be as follows:
- when you need to issue a tax identification number (if the stamp is not visually visible);
- when there is a need to apply for Ukrainian citizenship (this is possible when there is confirmation of total permanent stay in Ukraine for more than 5 years);
- when there is a need to execute certain notarial actions;
- when the certificate must be presented at the place of demand to certain authorized bodies.
As you can see, there are quite a lot of situations when a border crossing certificate can be really relevant and appropriate.
When is such a certificate necessary for Ukrainians?
Ukrainians also have situations when a border crossing certificate is needed. For example, this may be relevant when it is necessary to prove that a person has not been in Ukraine for a certain period of time. Or – provide proof that she really legally crossed the border through the checkpoint. Situations can be common when a person is charged a utility debt at a time when he did not use utility services.
