Genealogy research

Residents of various countries whose ancestors previously resided in Ukraine sometimes need to submit a request to one of the Ukrainian archives to obtain a document that has full legal force for embassies and consulates. There are many nuances to completing such a request. To help you avoid mistakes, we have compiled detailed instructions, which we have posted on our Telegram channel:

We will post these instructions here on the website shortly. Including in English. We’ll also be launching an English-language Telegram channel about genealogy very soon.

We announce the appearance of our new project of indexing of act records from the archival funds of Ukraine in this 2025. The plans are to enter millions of records into the database. The sequence of entering information by sections is determined in the following order: birth records, marriage records, death records. We will be glad if the information we present helps many people find ancestors or determine their nationality.

We sincerely congratulate you on the New Year 2022 and Merry Christmas! Peace to all, kindness, love, joy, God in your heart, strength of spirit and peace of mind! And of course health and strong natural immunity! May prosperity come into your life and your dreams come true!

Ukrainian archives open the doors of reading rooms for visitors … How do you want to finally read this phrase on the official sites of regional and other archives of Ukraine. This news is eagerly awaited by everyone who wants to restore their family tree, to find interesting facts from their kind in archival documents. From 11.05.2020, cafes and restaurants were opened in Ukraine, hairdressers and beauty salons serve visitors, where, unlike the reading room of the archive, there is close contact between people. And of course, not a single coronavirus can resist the antiseptics that processed archival cases) It all depends on the courage and decisiveness of the heads of regional administrations and the leadership of the State Archive. We like those leaders who will be the first!
