Planning a trip from India to Ukraine? Whether you’re exploring Kyiv’s landmarks or heading to Lviv for its rich culture, you’ll need to get your Ukraine eVisa sorted first.
The good news: It’s all online, no embassy visits needed.
What is the Ukraine eVisa?
The Ukraine eVisa is a single-entry digital visa for short visits. It’s available for tourism, business, education, medical treatment, and more. Everything is done online, and your visa gets delivered straight to your inbox.
Do Indian citizens need a Ukraine eVisa?
Yes, Indian passport holders must have an eVisa to enter Ukraine. This applies to all travelers, including minors and those transiting through Ukraine.
Heads-up: Ukraine’s airports are closed to commercial flights for now. Travelers are entering via land borders such as Poland and Slovakia. Make sure to check the latest entry rules when planning your trip.
How long can Indian citizens stay in Ukraine with an eVisa? 🛫
The eVisa lets you stay up to 30 days for one trip. It’s valid for 6 months from the date of approval, so be sure to plan your entry within that window.
💬 Important: Overstaying your visa can lead to fines or future entry bans.
"I stayed a couple of days over my visa and had to pay a fine when leaving. Ukraine is strict about visa rules," said Ankit P. from Mumbai.
What documents do Indian travelers need? 📝
Here’s your essentials checklist:
- Valid Indian passport
- Passport-size photo
- Proof of health insurance (minimum EUR 30,000 coverage)
- Proof of sufficient funds or a return ticket
- Accommodation booking or invitation letter
Michael Angelo from The Project Kosmos recommends using a passport without many stamps, especially if you plan to visit countries like Belarus afterward, to avoid extra questions at the border. Other travelers also advised using a new passport to enter Ukraine if you've ever visited Russia before, because having Russian stamps can result in you being denied entry on arrival.
