Company Registration in Ukraine for Pakistani Founders (LLC / TOV)
We register a Ukrainian limited liability company for Pakistani founders: charter, notarial filing, EDR entry and EDRPOU code, tax registration, legal address and the bank file, with the link to residence set out in writing.
Direct answer
A Pakistani citizen can own 100% of a Ukrainian LLC (TOV) with no local partner and no statutory minimum capital. The founders sign before a notary and the register entry appears within days; tax registration and the bank account take longer. A founder residence permit needs a share of at least EUR 100,000; otherwise, a work permit as director.

Company and residence: how they connect
A founder’s TRP is a separate application to the State Migration Service. On the company ground it needs your share in the charter capital to be at least EUR 100,000 at the National Bank rate on the date of the investment (Law No. 3773-VI, Art. 4, part 12). With a smaller share, the company can employ you as director on a work permit, and the TRP follows that permit. Plan the residence step together with the company structure: who is director, who is employed, and which ground each family member will use. Read the arithmetic of the founder route and see the residence permit service.
