Registering, printing, signing and bringing your visa application form along with your supporting documents will make the application process easier and save your time.

Processing Time
The processing time for a Ukrainian student visa typically takes around 15 days. However, certain factors may extend this period. Delays can occur due to a high number of applications or incomplete submissions. Additionally, if the embassy requests further documentation, the process may take longer. To prevent unnecessary delays, it is crucial to submit all required documents accurately. We will assist international students throughout the admission and visa application process, ensuring a smooth and efficient experience.
