How the Process Works

After the candidate is approved, the process moves from screening to employer documents, consular filing, arrival in Ukraine and further formalities.

  1. Initial application. The candidate or agent sends the application form, CV, passport and information about professional experience.
  2. VISA-SVIT screening. Basic requirements, documents, occupation, experience and the possibility of submitting the profile to the employer are checked.
  3. Employer approval. The employer evaluates the candidate's professional profile and decides whether to continue the process.
  4. Document preparation. The support team and employer prepare the package required for the foreign worker's work permit.
  5. Work permit procedure. After the relevant procedure is completed, the employer's document package for the visa application is prepared.
  6. Documents transferred to the candidate. After completion of the agreed stage, the prepared documents are transferred to the candidate / agent according to the procedure.
  7. Personal visa application. The candidate personally submits the documents to the relevant Ukrainian consular authority in the country of citizenship or legal residence in accordance with the current rules.
  8. Arrival arrangements. After a positive visa decision, the travel route, flight, transfer and meeting with the employer are coordinated.
