Under Ukrainian law, foreigners are allowed a 90-day stay upon entry into the country. Anyone wishing to extend their stay beyond this period must apply for a temporary residence permit, valid for up to three years. To remain in Ukraine after this period, individuals must either leave the country or apply for the permit’s extension. Common grounds for the extension’s application include employment, marriage to a Ukrainian national, or enrollment in educational institutions within Ukraine.
The process for extending a temporary residence permit is similar to the initial application, emphasizing the importance of timely document submission to avoid penalties. Applications should be made at least 15 days before the current permit’s expiration date. The required steps include preparing and submitting the necessary documents and application to the Migration Service, followed by obtaining the extended residence permit, provided there’s no threat to public security and documents are filed correctly.
