- may request further documents. Additionally, they took with a certificate Marriage and a copy of the work book (but it forgot to pay). Certificate of conviction did not take (although often on the internet I have seen terrible fable that without them nowhere empty, and large number of "honest" agents who are willing to give you this help), because she was not in the list of required documents.
All of the above these documents were filed in Russian or English. English are not translated.
Consular fee (based on the information at this link http://espvac-ua.com/ukraine/visafees.aspx), for both of us amounted to 369 * 2 = 1,107 USD, more service fee + 21 EUR (+ VAT) x2 = just based courier paid 1378 USD. (Incidentally, when recorded to interview the visa fee was 348 UAH, that is, price changes, as on page warning).
pay all at UAH, and the consular service and fee is paid on the spot, rather than from banks (as it may be with the U.S. Embassy, France, etc.)
Register for an interview for this link http://www.espvac-ua.com/ukraine/schedule. aspx . To register, will need passport details that fill in the form below. You can register multiple people, in our case there were two. After this a window will appear, which select the date and time of interview.

himself Visa Application Centre is not difficult to find, leaving the subway to sort out which way to go and move around the map. Visa Application Centre is a small two-storey building which is located in a unique prom. zone around the hangars and warehouses. Near the visa service many "helpfully" offering transfers and insurance. Near the building there are no cafes or shops, drink or warm up nowhere, but inside there is a coffee maker. on the fence near the center hang informational posters, where you can see, I think that all the information about visas. By the way, Visa Center "universal", but Spain can also apply to Italy, France, Finland, Belgium, Denmark and Finland (from memory).
We have been registered at 8.30. Exactly at this time the guard went into the street and began to invite people who first invited the people who came to take away passports and lists of the country, passing inside those whose country was called, then those who are on the pitch.
Going inside came up to us workers centers and registered us in what box we will wait and gave us a voucher number and the number of people in front of us. Spain windows are located on the left, there are only three. Easy to find, since each has a flag the country in which to get visas.
We have filed the documents until they checked, we have filled the form by courier service to which you want to send a passport. After we have returned to a form of printing, it is a copy, as we were told she may be required if necessary to bring up all documents. And given check for payment. After payment, leaving yourself checks and all other docks that you will give.
One time I gave my two current passport, both of them taken away.
filed documents Friday morning in Kiev on Wednesday in the middle of the day in Kiev courier delivered our passports with the visas! : -) While we were waiting until next week, because we were told that only the embassy is considering up to 5 working days.
All information is presented not as a clear guide to action, and for info themselves, not to forget. All of the above may change, so check. ; -)
