Cancellation of a work permit in Ukraine 

1) In case of dismissal of a foreigner or early termination of the contract, it is necessary to notify the Employment Center.

2) The work permit form can be kept at the enterprise or returned to the Employment Center.

3) You can check the information about the cancellation of a work permit in the register of cancelled permits on the website of the Employment Center.

Why is it necessary to cancel a work permit?

The Law of Ukraine "On Employment of the Population" defines the circumstances under which an employer is obliged to apply to the authority issuing a permit for employment of foreigners and stateless persons with a petition for its cancellation.

In what cases, is it necessary to notify the Employment Center about the cancellation of a work permit?

A work permit is subject to cancellation in the following cases:

• the employment agreement (contract) with a foreigner or a stateless person has been terminated;
• the execution of the agreement (contract) concluded between the Ukrainian and foreign business entities, in connection with which the foreigner or stateless person was sent, was terminated;
• Migration Service has decided to recognize a foreigner or a stateless person as a refugee or a person in need of additional protection.

We also recommend notifying the Employment Center if a foreigner has received a permanent residence permit in Ukraine or has become a Ukrainian citizen.
