Reasons for Preparing an Archival Reference
Clients from Lviv, Odesa, Kharkiv, Kyiv, Dnipro, Bratislava, and other cities primarily require archival references in the following situations:
- Inheritance processing. Necessary to confirm rights to inherited property.
- Obtaining citizenship. Helps prove the fact of the birth or residence of ancestors in the country.
- Registering property rights. Used to confirm ownership.
- Restoring lost documents. Needed to replace lost birth, marriage, and other certificates.
- Confirming work experience. Required for calculating pensions or other social benefits.
- Correcting errors in official records. Used to correct incorrect data in documents.
Process of Obtaining an Archival Reference
The process begins with submitting a request, which the team prepares and sends to the relevant state (regional) archives. We handle all stages — from drafting the application with the exact required data to verifying the presence of the document in the archival funds. The time to obtain the reference depends on the complexity of the search and the specific task at hand, but our staff does everything possible to expedite the process while acting exclusively in the client's interest.
