Due to full-scale hostilities, many Ukrainians had to leave the country. At the beginning of the war, it was possible to enter other countries using any document certifying identity. But currently, some countries have changed the rules for crossing the border. Therefore, in order not to find yourself in an awkward position, you should take care of the documents necessary for departure in advance.


Earlier we talked about how to extend the validity of a foreign passport during the war. The Cabinet of Ministers has changed the procedure for extending the validity period of a foreign passport and pasting children's photos into it. We advise you to pay special attention to this if you are abroad without a valid document.


If you have already applied for a foreign passport, but you are worried that the document will not be ready by the planned date of departure, you can check the status of the production of your foreign passport.
