Intra-Corporate Transferee in Ukraine: Documents Required for a Work Permit
Cost of services:
Reviews of our Clients
Transferring a foreign employee to a Ukrainian company is not merely a matter of HR documentation. If the employee already works for a foreign company and is being assigned to an affiliated Ukrainian entity, you must first determine whether they qualify as an intra-corporate transferee (hereinafter referred to as "ICT").
This holds practical significance for both the employee and the employer, as ICTs can obtain a Employment Permit for a longer duration—up to three years.

Visa-free rules for Ukraine depend on nationality, passport type, purpose of travel, and permitted length of stay. Some travelers can stay for up to 90 days within 180 days, while others have shorter limits or may still need a D visa for long-term purposes.
Foreign service members who signed their military contract before May 10, 2026 can no longer rely on military identification alone for their continued stay. They must obtain a temporary residence permit within the transitional period and prepare the required military unit documents.
Some foreign volunteers can now move directly to the temporary residence permit process without first obtaining a Type D visa. The exemption applies only to specific categories and requires supporting documents from the host organization.
Sole traders and individuals cannot obtain CPD provider status, while companies must meet specific eligibility requirements. Activity codes, registry data, website compliance, and conflicts of interest can affect registration.
