IMPACT – MEDIUM
What is the change? Ukraine has announced the successful launch of its e-visa program for nationals of 46 countries.
What does the change mean? E-visas are valid for a single entry of up to 30 days.
Background: Eligible nationals may apply online, upload supporting documents and pay the government processing fee of US$65 electronically. The e-visa will be emailed to the applicant, who must print it out and present it at the airport upon arrival in Ukraine.
Nationals of the following countries are eligible for e-visas.
Countries Eligible for E-visas
BAL Analysis: Eligible nationals may begin using e-visas rather than applying for consular visas. Nationals who are eligible for both e-visas and visas on arrival may choose either program, but travelers should note that e-visas differ from visas on arrival. Visas on arrival are available to nationals of 32 countries (30 of which are also eligible for e-visas), are only available at certain airports, and have different requirements, including a document that confirms the purpose of travel, such as an invitation letter from the hosting entity.
