Ukraine introduced an e-Visa on 4 April 2018.[51]

An e-Visa may be obtained by civil servants, foreign correspondents or media representatives for a business or working trip to Ukraine, which covers the spheres of culture, science, education and sports. In addition, an e-Visa may be obtained by citizens who want to visit the country for private, tourist or medical purposes.[52][53]

The cost of e-Visa is 20 USD for single-entry visa and 30 USD for double-entry visa with decision within 3 business days. Urgent visa processing is available for double visa fee (40 / 60 USD) and decision within 1 business day.[54]

Due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, e-Visa is currently suspended.

## Conflict area[edit]

Crimea and parts of Donetsk, Kharkiv, Kherson, Luhansk, Mykolaiv and Zaporizhzhia regions are currently illegally occupied by the Russian Federation due to the Russo-Ukrainian war.

The Government of Ukraine strictly phohibits the entry and transit of foreign citizens to the occupied territories. Foreign citizens who entered the occupied territories without permission will be denied entry and transit to Ukraine. However, all this does not apply to citizens of Ukraine.

On 4 June 2015, the Government of Ukraine has adopted the resolution No. 367 "About the statement of the Order of entrance on temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine and departure from the territory". According to the document, entrance of foreigners and persons without citizenship on temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine and departure from the territory is carried out through checkpoints according to passport documents and the special permission given by territorial authority, which, however, is not issued to regular visitors.

## Fingerprinting[edit]

Countries required to go through biometric checks (in green)

Ukraine introduced a biometric control (fingerprints, digital photo) at border crossings for citizens of the following 70 countries and territories on 1 January 2018: Afghanistan, Algeria, Angola, Bangladesh, Benin, Botswana, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, Cape Verde, Central African Republic, Chad, Comoros, Republic of Congo, Democratic Republic of Congo, Côte d'Ivoire, Djibouti, Egypt, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Eswatini, Ethiopia, Gabon, Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Guyana, Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Kenya, North Korea, Kyrgyzstan, Lebanon, Lesotho, Liberia, Libya, Madagascar, Malawi, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Mozambique, Namibia, Niger, Nigeria, Pakistan, Palestine, Papua New Guinea, Russia, Rwanda, São Tomé and Príncipe, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Somalia, South Sudan, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Syria, Tajikistan, Tanzania, Togo, Tonga, Tunisia, Uganda, Vietnam, Yemen, Zambia, Zimbabwe.[56]

## Russia[edit]

On 1 July 2022, Ukraine introduced an unilateral visa regime with Russia.[47][48] Russia did not introduce a visa regime with Ukraine.

Since the diplomatic missions of Ukraine (embassies, general and honorary consulates, ordinary consulates) in Russian cities were closed after Ukraine severed all official diplomatic ties with Russia (following the Russian invasion of Ukraine), Russian citizens residing in Russia must apply to commercial visa centers, which will only operate in a few Russian cities.[57][58] Those Russian citizens who are outside of Russia should apply for a visa at one of the diplomatic missions of Ukraine in other countries of the world.[47][48]

The Ukrainian and Russian services of Radio Liberty found out that even obtaining a Ukrainian visa by a Russian citizen does not guarantee and does not mean his admission to the territory of Ukraine. Ukrainian border guards are ordered to leave admission or refusal of entry at their discretion (if a person seems suspicious to him or if he cannot answer the border guard's questions reliably) even to holders of a valid Ukrainian visa.

On 1 August 2022, the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine stated that about 80 Russians had submitted documents for obtaining a Ukrainian visa.[57]

On 13 December 2022, the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine stated that during the first 4.5 months of the visa regime, 10 visas were issued to Russian citizens and 7 Russian citizens had entered Ukraine (mostly for humanitarian reasons).[59]

## Admission restrictions[edit]

Ukraine does not recognize the passports of Abkhazia, Northern Cyprus, the Sahrawi Republic, Somaliland, South Ossetia and Transnistria.
