Work in Ukraine.
We Handle Everything.

Asia Work is a Ukrainian recruitment company that places foreign workers from Asia in legal jobs across Ukraine. We handle every step: job matching, work permit, D visa, and arrival support. Our office is in Kyiv. Our employer network spans manufacturing, construction, logistics, and hospitality sectors throughout Ukraine.

Since 2024, Ukraine has opened its labour market to foreign workers to fill chronic shortages in skilled trades and industrial production. Employers need workers. Workers need legal jobs with proper documents. Asia Work connects both sides and handles the paperwork in between.

Why Ukraine?

Ukraine offers conditions that make it a practical destination for workers from South and Southeast Asia:

• •Legal employment framework — Ukraine issues work permits to foreign citizens through a regulated government process. Every worker we place receives a valid work permit, D visa, and employment contract.
• •Competitive salaries — Monthly wages for skilled trades range from $600 to $1,200 depending on the role, experience, and employer. Overtime and bonuses are common in manufacturing.
• •Low cost of living — Rent, food, and transport in Ukrainian cities cost significantly less than in Western Europe or the Gulf states. Many employers provide accommodation and meals as part of the employment package.
• •Path to residency — After 1 year on a work permit, foreign workers can apply for a Temporary Residence Card (TRC). After 3 years of continuous employment, permanent residence becomes available.
• •No recruitment fees for workers — At Asia Work, employers cover all service costs. Candidates pay nothing for job placement, work permit processing, or visa support.
