Study in Ukraine for Pakistani Students: Visa & University Check
We check that your Ukrainian university is accredited and your Invitation for Study is genuine before you pay tuition, then prepare your Type D study visa and residence (TRP) file. Our fee comes from you alone; we take no commission from universities.
Direct answer
Pakistani students apply to a Ukrainian university through studyinukraine.gov.ua, receive a digital Invitation for Study (valid 6 months), then apply for a Type D study visa (USD 70; decision within 10 working days, up to 30 with additional checks) and a residence permit inside Ukraine. We verify the university and the invitation, then prepare the visa and TRP files.
