Remember! When planning a trip to Ukraine, first of all, you need to take care of the appropriate insurance policy. After all, entry into the country without an insurance policy is impossible, and any foreign insurance automatically expires after crossing the Ukrainian border. In this case, we recommend that you take out insurance specifically covering military risks, which will cover not only standard medical care/treatment/diagnosis, etc. but also accidents and injuries caused by passive or direct military risks.

You can take out such insurance on the Visit Ukraine website. Follow the link and choose an insurance policy with the appropriate coverage and indemnity amount for the required period. Read more about how to get insurance in Ukraine here.

We remind you! The imposed martial law on the territory of Ukraine does not prohibit the entry of foreigners, but it does impose some other restrictions.
