Personal & Family Documents

Guides for civil-status documents across the Canada–Ukraine corridor: getting Ukrainian birth, marriage, and other records while living in Canada, and making Canadian family documents work in Ukraine.

01 How to use Canadian family documents in Ukraine
A Canadian-issued birth, marriage, or divorce document works in Ukraine after two steps: an apostille from the competent Canadian office, and a certified Ukrainian translation produced after the apostille.
02 Getting Ukrainian civil records while living in Canada
Ukrainian birth, marriage, divorce, and name-change records can be obtained without travelling: a representative in Ukraine applies to the RACS civil registry system under a power of attorney, or an application runs through a Ukrainian consulate in Canada.
How this category works

Each guide answers first, then explains who issues the record, how a representative or consular route obtains it, and which formality chain — apostille, certified translation — makes it valid on the other side.
