Ukraine immigration permit for foreign investors (Закон «Про імміграцію» 2001, ст. 4 ч. 2 п. 3: investment of at least USD 100,000, within the immigration quota)
Sells the right to live in the country (a “golden visa”), sometimes leading to citizenship later.
Foreign investment of at least US$100,000 in convertible currency in Ukraine's economy, which gives an immigration permit (permanent residence) (Law on Immigration, art. 4; unchanged since 2001). The yearly quota for investors was unlimited in 2022 and 2023, and since Oct 2023 quotas apply only in a mass arrival. How martial law affects applications was not established. Fees excluded.
Notes from the research
The Law on Immigration (No. 2491-III, adopted 7 June 2001) lists, among the categories that may receive an immigration permit (permanent residence) within the yearly immigration quota, persons who made a foreign investment in Ukraine's economy in convertible currency of at least USD 100,000. The clause is in the first edition and in the current text (reworded in 2016 and 2023). Launched = entry into force 07.08.2001 per the Rada's document card (the law enters into force one month after publication; first published 07.07.2001). Until 2023 the Cabinet set a yearly immigration quota; the quota orders for 2022 and 2023 put no limit on the investor category ("без обмеження"), and none has been issued for 2024-2026. Since Law 3180-IX (in force 20 October 2023) a quota is set only in case of mass arrival. Status active (checked 2026-10-11): the investor clause is in the current law and no act suspending immigration permits under martial law was found; the number of permits granted to investors was not found.

What we know is missing
- Ukraine immigration permit for foreign investors (Закон «Про імміграцію» 2001, ст. 4 ч. 2 п. 3: investment of at least USD 100,000, within the immigration quota): we found no published numbers at all, only rules and events.
A gap means no figure is in our data: either it was never published or we haven't found or read it yet. Charts leave gaps open rather than drawing across them.
