The Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine No. 118 of March 1, 2017 "On
Approval of the Rules for Issuing Visas for Entry into Ukraine and Transit through its
Territory" defines both the list of documents and the regulations for issuing visas for entry into Ukraine and transit through its territory that foreigners must submit for each specific reason depending on the type of visa. In addition, the Law of Ukraine "On the Legal Status of Foreigners and Stateless Persons", Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine No. 884 dated December 4, 2013 "On Approval of the Procedure for Confirming Sufficient Financial Security of Foreigners and Stateless Persons for Entry into Ukraine, Stay in Ukraine, Transit through Ukraine and Departure from Ukraine and Determining the Amount of Such Security" are among the important legislative acts in this regard. However, as practice shows, even if all the documents required by law are available, refusals may be made due to insufficient evidence.
There may be various reasons for refusal, for example: lack of evidence confirming the purpose of the foreigner's or stateless person's planned stay in Ukraine or the establishment that the submitted passport document of a foreigner or stateless person is forged, damaged or does not correspond to the established sample or belongs to another person, or even the submission of knowingly false information or forged other documents. If you have been denied a transit visa, you have the full right to appeal such a refusal by following the following steps:
1. Order the service "Preliminary consultation on appealing the decision to refuse a type B visa to Ukraine".
2. During the consultation with the specialists of EVROVECTOR Law Firm, provide all the documents that were submitted for obtaining a visa, tell all the details about the application procedure and the interview with consular officers (if such a conversation took place).
3. After the consultation, order the service - Legal support of appealing against the decision of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to refuse to grant a visa to Ukraine.
4. Next, the lawyers will prepare the relevant requests and appeals, and in case of repeated refusal, they will submit the relevant application and materials to the court. If you follow all these recommendations and fully comply with the
actions that the visa law experts will recommend, the issue of appeal will be easy. It is important to understand that an appeal can be made both to the government agency that refused (for example, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs) and directly to a judicial institution. It is better to entrust this matter to a lawyer who can immediately
build a full plan of legal support and the procedure for appealing the refusal.
