Visas & Embassies

Visa and passport

Citizens of many countries may come to Ukraine for 90 days without a visa. All they need is a passport. Here is the list of the countries with which Ukraine has a visa-free agreement: the U.S.A., Canada, European Union, Switzerland, Lichtenstein, Andorra, Vatican, Norway, Mongolia, most former Soviet Union countries and some others. To get more information about visa issue, it is necessary to contact Ukrainian Embassy in your country or a travel agency which offers a tour. 

You will need an entry visa in case:

• There is no visa-free agreement between our countries.
• You live in the country mentioned in the list above (90 days without a visa), but you plan to stay longer in Ukraine.
• You plan to work or study in Ukraine regardless of time terms.

Language of communication

Ukrainian is an official language in the country. However, most people in the south and in the east of the country speak Russian. They understand Ukrainian but feel more comfortable to use the Russian language. The Ukrainian language is mostly spoken in the center and in the west. In Kyiv you will hear people speaking both Ukrainian and Russian.

Ukrainian time

The whole country of Ukraine lives according to Kyiv time: for winter months - UTC +2, for summer months - UTC +3

Traveling with children

Ukraine is a young nation; children are more than welcome in hotels, on excursions, in restaurants and other places. Frequently you may be offered a discount for children. But you have to take a good care of your safe travel and visit in Ukraine.
