On 28 September 2020, Ukraine lifted the temporary entry restrictions for foreigners and stateless persons traveling to or through Ukraine. Travellers are now permitted to cross the border into Ukraine provided they have an insurance policy certificate issued by a Ukraine-registered insurance company, or a foreign insurance company with an office in Ukraine or a contractual partnership with one of the Ukraine registered insurance companies. The insurance policy must cover the potential costs of COVID-19 treatments, observation, and be valid for the period of the intended stay in Ukraine.
Visitors entering Ukraine from countries with high numbers of COVID-19 cases will be required to self-isolate on arrival. The list of countries considered to have high-numbers of COVID-19 cases can be found at https://moz.gov.ua/uk
Persons who self-isolate after entering Ukraine must also install and activate the appropriate mobile phone app. Those who cannot do so will be subject to observation.
Visitors wishing to enter Ukraine can now apply for an e-visa, which can be issued for a single or a double entry into Ukraine, and allow holders to stay for up to 30 days where the purpose of the trip is business / private visit / tourism / medical treatment / cultural, scientific, educational or sports activities / foreign mass media staff visit. To apply for the e-visa, please visit the web-platform: https://mfa.gov.ua/en/consular-affairs/entry-and-stay-foreigners-ukraine/e-visa
