It is essential to understand the difference between immigration and permanent residence permits.
Immigration refers to the process of moving to a new country to settle permanently, while a permanent residence permit is the official document granting you the right to reside in that country indefinitely. In simpler terms, immigration is the act of relocating, while permanent residence is the legal status obtained after successfully immigrating.
It is important to note that the immigration permit grants you the initial right to enter and stay in Ukraine for 90 days (or less). Once you have been residing in Ukraine on an immigration permit, you may become eligible to apply for a permanent residence permit, which allows you to stay in the country indefinitely.
