HOW TO SAFELY VISIT AND TRAVEL TO UKRAINE?


Martial law is in effect in Ukraine, and while air traffic is suspended, foreign citizens may still enter and exit Ukraine by land, following the rules to visit Ukraine.


Checkpoints on the border with Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania and Moldova are open and safe. Checkpoints with the russia, Belarus and Transnistria are closed.


Crossing the state border of Ukraine is possible with:

• a valid passport document (the passport must be valid for the entire stay in the country);

! Citizens of Turkey and Georgia can enter Ukraine on the basis of an ID card.

• availability of an entry visa, if required;

• a residence permit, the term of which expired after February 24, 2022, gives the right to enter Ukraine;

• availability of a health insurance policy. Insurance in Ukraine is mandatory.

For journalists, reporters, correspondents, opinion leaders, as well as media representatives, this is enshrined in the Law of Ukraine on Insurance (Article 7).




Rules to visit Ukraine


Visit Ukraine strongly recommends securing a medical insurance policy that includes coverage for military risks for the entire duration of your stay in Ukraine. This insurance provides financial support in case of incidents related to passive military risks or terrorist acts, including coverage for repatriation to your country of permanent residence, if necessary. Health insurance policies in Ukraine include essential services such as emergency care, outpatient treatment, and hospitalization.


Recommendation: Travelers should also be prepared to confirm the purpose of their visit and stay in Ukraine.




Tourism in Ukraine


Tourism in Ukraine is currently facing unprecedented challenges. The war has caused significant damage to infrastructure and unique natural sites that were either completely destroyed during the fighting or are currently under occupation. Nevertheless, the country continues to attract tourists who are eager to discover Ukraine's unique culture and nature even in these difficult times.


Many foreign tourists visit different regions of Ukraine. The most popular destinations remain Kyiv, Lviv and the Carpathian Mountains. Kyiv attracts visitors with its rich history, architectural monuments and cultural events. Lviv is famous for its medieval architecture, cozy cafes, and unique old town atmosphere.


For travelers seeking new experiences and unusual adventures, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with our extensive database of safe tours in Ukraine. Even the most demanding tourists will find something interesting here.
