IMPACT – MEDIUM
What is the change? A visa-free travel agreement between the United Arab Emirates and Ukraine has entered into force.
What does the change mean? UAE and Ukrainian nationals may now travel to each other’s countries for short-stay tourism and business trips without having to obtain a visa prior to travel.
Background: The UAE and Ukraine signed an agreement to waive visa requirements for short-stay trips in November. The deal has since been put into effect. The arrangement allows Ukrainian nationals to visit the UAE for stays of up to 30 days, while UAE nationals may visit Ukraine for up to 90 days in a 180-day period.
BAL Analysis: The new visa agreement will ease travel for UAE and Ukrainian nationals traveling to each other’s countries.
