A permanent residence permit is a document confirming the right of a foreigner or stateless person to permanent residence in the country. Usually, this is a document that gives the right to freely leave and enter the country during the entire period of validity of the permanent residence permit.
A permanent residence permit is issued on the basis of an immigration permit, therefore, after a positive decision on obtaining an immigration permit, a foreigner can apply for a permanent residence permit.
ADVANTAGES OF PERMANENT RESIDENCE:
- The right to employment without an appropriate employment permit
- Visit the country without restrictions on the number
- No need to extend the validity of the certificate every year
- A foreigner retains the citizenship of the country, but at the same time is a resident of Ukraine
It is important to understand that a foreigner is issued a copy of the immigration permit, as the original remains with the Migration Service.
THE LIST OF DOCUMENTS THAT MUST BE SUBMITTED TO THE MIGRATION SERVICE TO OBTAIN A TEMPORARY RESIDENCE PERMIT:
- Original passport
- Notarized and translated passport of a foreigner
- A copy of the immigration permit
- State duty payment receipt
If a foreigner has not been on the territory of Ukraine and did not receive a temporary residence permit during the review of immigration permits, he will need to obtain a separate visa type D.
THE TERM OF CONSIDERATION OF DOCUMENTS IS 15 WORKING DAYS
After receiving a permanent residence permit, you need to register your place of residence in Ukraine within 30 days from the date of issuance of the permanent residence permit. Sometimes foreigners think that 30 days are counted from the moment of obtaining a permanent residence permit, but this is not the case, 30 days are counted from the date of issue, which is indicated on the permanent residence permit itself.
