For the right to live abroad legally!

Independent Initiative Group of the Ukrainian Diaspora

Our community was formed as a result of the government's ill-considered actions, which prematurely implemented Law No. 3633-IX of April 11, 2024 ( legally in force since 18.05), which violated Articles 58 and 25 of the Constitution and led to numerous problems for citizens. Among such communities, we are the largest and most patriotic - we always think about whether our actions will harm the cause of Ukraine's fight against the Russian aggressor.
 Currently we are registered NGO in Poland.

Ukrainian men are being denied essential documents

The state enterprise "Document" claims it has suspended issuing international passports to men abroad due to technical problems. However, there is information suggesting this is merely a pretext and that an unofficial government directive restricts such services for men of mobilization age. Despite SE Document formally acknowledged that this should not affect those who applied before the new mobilization law, free release of documents for them is still blocked.

Restrictions on consular services

A recently adopted mobilization law prohibits providing consular services without a military registration document, which can be created in the "Reserv+" app. However, this document isn't issued automatically when updating data. Instead, a  specific status, determined by an official in Ukraine, is transmitted from the "Oberig" registry to the app. Statuses include "On record," "Data Incomplete", "Data absent", "Wanted" and "Violation  of accounting rules" The latter four cannot be corrected remotely, potentially leaving those abroad without documents. We explained this in detail in our letter to EU politicians and also to ukrainian government

Expired passports

What could this lead to?

Housing

An expired passport can lead to refusal of residence or the inability to rent accommodation. Many landlords require valid documents to formalize rental agreements, and lacking a valid passport complicates the housing process abroad.

Employment

An expired passport can become an obstacle to obtaining a job or conducting business activities. Employers often verify documents for compliance and validity, and not having an up-to-date passport may result in job refusals.

Medical Services

Possessing an expired passport may complicate access to medical care and insurance. Medical institutions and insurance companies might refuse services or policy issuance without valid documents.

Free Movement

An expired passport can limit your freedom of movement, hindering your ability to leave the country or enter others. Expired documents may lead to issues at borders and with transportation services.

Investigation: Ukrainian state enterprise worked with a firm whose co-owner is a russian citizen supporting aggression

The Ukrainian state enterprise "Document," which has access to personal data of Ukrainian citizens, signed a contract in autumn 2022 for representation in Germany with the law firm Schmider & Eckstein. Both co-founders had worked in Russia for an extended period and promoted business with the country led by Vladimir Putin. One of them is a Russian citizen who supports Kremlin policies and approves of the full-scale aggression. This is reported in an investigation by Radio Liberty's project "How Are You?"
