The current rules for crossing the Ukrainian border are regulated by the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine No.1236, with the latest amendments dated December 29, 2021
All foreigners, regardless of age and country of arrival to enter Ukraine must have an insurance policy (certificate) issued by an insurance company registered in Ukraine or a foreign insurance company with a representative office in Ukraine or a contractual relationship with the insurance company-partner on the territory of Ukraine (assistance), which covers the costs associated with the treatment of COVID-19, observation, and is valid for the entire period of stay in Ukraine.
All foreign citizens, holders of a temporary residence permit, as well as stateless persons need to have one of the following documents:
- a document confirming the receipt of a full course of vaccination with vaccines that are included by WHO in the list of approved for use in emergency situations; or
- foreign COVID certificate confirming vaccination against COVID-19 with 1, 2 or more doses of vaccines that are included in the WHO list of approved for emergency use, or negative test result by PCR, or recovery from COVID-19; or
- a negative PCR test result or rapid test for the SARS-CoV-2 antigen (RAT, Ag) that was done no more than 72 hours before entry.
Foreign tourists over 18 years old who have not been vaccinated against coronavirus and cross the state border to enter must install the Vdoma mobile app, which monitors self-isolation, regardless of the length of stay on the territory of Ukraine. Self-isolation is not required if you undergo PCR testing or a rapid antigen test within 72 hours of entry and get a negative result.
