Subject · Employer Verification
Verify the employer
before you accept anything.
Before accepting any job offer in Ukraine, Pakistani workers must independently verify the employer is legally registered, authorised to hire foreign nationals, and not blacklisted for labour violations.
Direct finding
A registered employer can always be verified — a fake one cannot.
Before accepting any job offer in Ukraine, confirm independently that the employer is legally registered, authorised to hire foreign nationals, and not blacklisted for labour violations. The paperwork looking professional proves nothing on its own.
Red flags to watch for
- Employer EDRPOU code does not match the Unified State Register
- Company name in contract differs from official registration
- Employer cannot provide Derzhpratsi permit to hire foreigners
- Multiple complaints visible on Ukrainian labour inspection websites
What can go wrong if you proceed
Unverified employer → illegal status → no remedy.
- Illegal employment status from day one
- Unpaid wages with no legal remedy
- Deportation if employer is investigated
How to protect yourself
Run the checks before you pay anyone.
- Verify any Ukrainian employer EDRPOU code against the Unified State Register at usr.court.gov.ua (free, public).
- Never pay upfront fees to receive a job offer, work permit, or visa document.
- Confirm the employer holds a valid Derzhpratsi permit to hire foreign nationals.
- Confirm all permits carry verifiable reference numbers from the State Employment Service or DMSU.
- If you are unsure, request an employer verification check before proceeding.
