SPONSORSHIP
The Ukraine Sponsorship Scheme enables both businesses and individuals to sponsor a named contact, or contacts so allowing Ukrainian nationals and their family members to come to the UK if they have a named sponsor who can provide accommodation for a minimum of 6 months. It is free to apply.
The process depends on whether you already have a named contact to sponsor. If you do, you must complete a visa application with details of the refugee and your business. The sponsored contact must have been living in Ukraine on or immediately before 1st January 2022, and currently be outside of the UK.
Once the application is processed, the individual will receive a letter confirming they may travel to the UK without a visa.
