Work permit in Ukraine

Kyiv | Kharkiv | Odesa

It’s easy to work legally in Ukraine!

Immigration lawyers of our firm have sufficient basic knowledge and practical experience to obtain a work permit in Ukraine as soon as possible and with the least involvement of you in the process.

Ukraine, with its rapidly developing business sector and attractive cultural landscape, attracts many foreigners every year, including those who wish to work in Ukraine or start their own business. In order for a foreigner to be legally employed in our country, he or she must have a work permit. For some, obtaining such a permit may seem like a serious bureaucratic obstacle. However, our clients should not worry. We will arrange everything for you. We will simply hand over the finished document to you!

A work permit is an official temporary document issued by a regional employment centre that entitles an employer to temporarily and legally employ a foreigner or stateless person. The permit is valid for up to three years, and can be extended an unlimited number of times after its expiry.

Obtaining a work permit in Ukraine gives you the opportunity to apply for a temporary residence permit. The period for which a temporary residence permit is issued will not exceed the validity of the work permit. In addition, residence permits can be issued for family members of an employee who has obtained a work permit.

Foreigners and stateless persons are divided into those who need to obtain a work permit in Ukraine and those who can be legally employed without a permit.

Foreigners do not need a work permit:

  • who have a permit to immigrate to Ukraine (permanent residence permit)
  • who have refugee status or a person in need of complementary protection

The terms of employment of such foreigners do not differ from those of Ukrainian citizens

The following persons may also be employed without a work permit: sailors and pilots of foreign companies in Ukraine, accredited foreign journalists, professional artists and athletes, emergency services, priests, foreigners who have arrived in Ukraine for educational or teaching purposes, as well as employees of representative offices of foreign companies within the framework of international technical cooperation programmes.

It is mandatory to obtain a work permit for all other categories of foreigners or stateless persons!

These rules are enshrined in Article 3 of the Law of Ukraine “On Employment of the Population”.
