14.11.2025 16:48:41 As a Ukrainian citizen in Edinburgh, you may be interested in various UK visa types, such as work visas (including Skilled Worker Visas), student visas, family visas, or humanitarian protection schemes specific to Ukrainians. Legal services can typically assist with guidance on eligibility, application preparation, supporting documentation, and representation in case of appeals. It is important to choose the visa category that best matches your circumstances and intended activities in the UK.
14.11.2025 16:48:49 From a legal perspective under UK immigration law, as a Ukrainian national seeking to come to or stay in Edinburgh (which is part of the UK), you may be eligible for several visa types depending on your circumstances. Key options include: 1. **Ukraine Family Scheme**: Allows you to join family members who are British citizens, have indefinite leave to remain, or are present and settled in the UK. This is free and provides up to 3 years' leave. 2. **Homes for Ukraine Scheme**: For those with a named sponsor in the UK offering accommodation for at least 6 months. It also grants up to 3 years' leave and is free. 3. **Ukraine Extension Scheme**: If you're already in the UK under one of the above or certain other categories, you can extend your stay for up to 3 more years. Other general UK visas that Ukrainians might apply for include: - **Skilled Worker Visa**: For employment in a qualifying job with a UK sponsor. - **Student Visa**: For studying at a licensed UK institution. - **Visitor Visa**: For short-term visits (up to 6 months) for tourism, business, or family visits. - **Global Talent Visa**: For those with exceptional talent in fields like science, arts, or technology. Note that due to the ongoing situation in Ukraine, there are specific provisions and exemptions. Applications are typically made online through the UK government's system, and you may need to attend a visa application center. For personalized advice, consult a qualified immigration lawyer or advisor, as laws can change.
17.11.2025 12:01:12 The Consulate of Ukraine in Edinburgh does not issue visas for Ukrainian citizens, as visas are only required for foreign nationals travelling to Ukraine. If you are a Ukrainian passport holder, you do not need a visa to enter Ukraine under any circumstances, including return, temporary visits, or long-term stays. The Consulate in Edinburgh can provide information on visa categories only for non-Ukrainian citizens, such as tourist, private, business, student, work, or long-term (D-type) visas, but these applications must be submitted by foreign nationals who intend to travel to Ukraine. If your inquiry relates to UK immigration procedures, the Consulate does not handle visas for entry to the United Kingdom; such matters fall under UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI). As a Ukrainian citizen, you may instead contact the Consulate for passport services, notarial assistance, civil status documents, or consular registration while residing in Scotland.
17.11.2025 12:15:22 While the Ukrainian Embassy in London assists with a range of consular certifications, it cannot legalise Ukrainian documents for use abroad in the sense required for UK employers. Employment-related records, labour certificates, reference letters, academic or professional qualifications issued in Ukraine must be legalised within Ukraine, following the official procedure of apostillisation administered by the competent ministries. After the apostille is affixed, the documents become valid for international use, including employment verification in the United Kingdom, and no further consular legalisation is typically required due to both countries’ participation in the Hague Apostille Convention. The Embassy in London may assist with notarised copies or certify the authenticity of translations if needed, but it cannot validate or endorse the original Ukrainian documents on behalf of UK authorities. To ensure full recognition, you must complete the apostille process in Ukraine before pre
