Hello,
聽聽聽 Thanks for your reply.Yes you are 100% correct,i will translate it to English and get all the stamps required and hope there will be no problem on borders.
No it is not hard to get the RP here in Ukraine and the procedure is very simple but just one thing is very important when you want to get RP here do all the process yourself and don't give money to people who work in OVIR or other Firms who help people in making RP here in Ukraine because it will cost you a lot of money and at the same time you can do all the procedure yourself and get it for almost 700UAH(88$).so hope you get it when you want:)

How聽 can an immigration "from some other country" not to allow you to Ukraine?聽 This is nonsense. Other countries immigration have no legal power聽 to聽 allow or not to allow you to enter Ukraine. Only Ukrainian immigration聽 can聽 stop聽 you聽 from聽 entering Ukraine.

altiva yes they can for example if you are flying to Ukraine from Emirates that is Transit through UAE and they dont understand your RP because it is written in Ukrainian Language how can they be sure that it is a legal document?Or i might say i show you my RP in Ukrainian language and you don't know the language in which it is written then how can you be sure that it a Ukrainian RP?
the problem is Ukraine should use multiple Language(English along with Ukrainian)on all documents which are used by foreigners.

Hi Tedd,
I understand your concern.
But,聽 I聽 think that Ukrainian people won't take it nice if you聽 try to make聽 Ukraine聽 into聽 some kind of Sweden, where they had all their TV and news in English, like Swedish language did not exist.
Why would Ukraine need some English in their papers?
When聽 they聽 accost you in Emirates, stand your ground. Tell them that you聽 are聽 a聽 permanent resident of Ukraine, which means that you have the聽 equal聽 rights聽 with聽 Ukrainian聽 citizens, except to be able to vote in election聽 and聽 signing聽 into聽 Ukrainian army. Tell them that you will call聽 Ukrainian聽 embassy聽 in聽 Emirates and they will have trouble, if they聽 won't聽 let you in. Tell them that YOU can read your own papers,
and so MUST they.聽 You have all the rights for this.
Get聽 the聽 phone number of Ukrainian embassy in Emirates ready, just in case.
