The Ukrainian parliament (Verkhovna Rada) approved a change
that waives long-term visa requirements for foreign
volunteers and humanitarian workers who apply for temporary residence
permits.
According to the bill summary on the parliament’s website on March 12, the amendment removes the long-term visa rule for certain foreigners and stateless persons for the duration of martial law and for one year after it is lifted.
The simplified procedure covers foreigners arriving to work for foreign legal entities that receive or distribute humanitarian aid, as well as those coming to participate in international and regional volunteer programs.
The provision do not apply to Russian citizens.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
