INTERESTING INFORMATION
As for the employer, when cooperating with workers in Ukraine, it is his duty to employ them officially and pay taxes when using hired labor. A work permit is a guarantee that you will have the necessary personnel and will not have problems with controlling bodies. The controlling authorities in Ukraine make their decision based on current year’s ranking or the rankings from previous year or the year before. The document is issued for a period that cannot exceed 3 years. It is subject to prolongation for the same term for an unlimited number of times. One of the most responsible moments of the whole procedure is not the execution of documents or their submission, but the signing of the employment contract already after receiving the Permit. You will have a limited amount of time to sign it with the employee and submit a signed copy to the state authority. Our company helps with the development of all documents and provides advice on how to keep the Permit.
