A temporary residence permit is a document that identifies a foreigner or stateless person and confirms the legal grounds for temporary residence in Ukraine. According to the current legislation of Ukraine, a temporary residence permit is valid for one year and is subject to renewal.
Upon expiration of the validity period of the temporary residence permit in Ukraine, the foreigner is obliged to promptly contact the relevant migration authorities to apply for renewal or obtain a new permit in accordance with the legislation of the country.
This is necessary to maintain legal residency status in Ukraine and avoid possible legal violations. Violating the terms of stay without the appropriate permitted documentation may result in administrative fines, deportation, or other legal consequences in accordance with Ukrainian law. Therefore, it is important to timely comply with all requirements and procedures related to obtaining and renewing the temporary residence permit.
As the expiration date of the temporary residence permit approaches and if you intend to extend its validity, you should carefully consider the timelines and required procedures. The submission of necessary documents is determined as no later than 15 working days before the expiration of the permit. Do this in a timely manner to avoid unpleasant surprises and maintain your status of legal residence in Ukraine.
Simplify your life by following these steps:
- Prepare the necessary documents: your passport, the original permit you plan to renew, and documents confirming your temporary residence in Ukraine.
- Provide four photographs sized 3.5×4.5 cm for documentation.
- Don’t forget to provide a copy of the TIN (tax identification number), which may be required for additional confirmation of your status.
- Seek assistance from the professionals from the Lawyers and Realtors Association of Ukraine “AROU” for highly qualified assistance and support at all stages.

The simplified process of renewing the temporary residence permit will ensure peace of mind and confidence in your legal status in Ukraine.
Renewing the temporary residence permit is a critically important step, as failure to comply with the deadlines may lead to serious problems with further stay in Ukraine.
Please note that the State Migration Service of Ukraine has more than ten reasons to refuse to renew the temporary residence permit. Therefore, we recommend approaching this procedure with due seriousness and considering the possibility of obtaining professional assistance from lawyers. They will be able to provide qualified support and assistance in avoiding possible difficulties with extending your legal stay in Ukraine.
However, there isn’t always a need to renew the permit, especially when it comes to terminating the legal grounds on which this document was previously issued. For example, a temporary residence permit in Ukraine may be revoked by the migration service unit that issued it in case of termination of employment, completion of studies at a university, or upon receipt of another motivated application for permit cancellation.
The obligation to inform the migration service about the termination of employment, expulsion from a higher education institution, as well as about the departure of a foreigner outside Ukraine or a change of his/her place of residence, lies with the receiving party, i.e., the employer, educational institution, public or religious organization. Such notification must be made in writing.
