About the Ukraine visa

Ukraine has historically issued e-Visas to Indian citizens for tourism, business and private visits. Since 2022 the country has been under martial law because of the ongoing war, and entry rules and services have changed several times.

The Government of India has repeatedly advised Indian nationals to avoid travel to Ukraine. Before planning any trip, check the latest Ministry of External Affairs advisory and confirm with the Ukrainian embassy whether visas are currently being issued. VisaAdvisory can help with the current position.

Visa options, stays and fees are set by Ukraine immigration and can change. We confirm the current options when you enquire.

Who can apply

  • You hold an Indian ordinary passport valid for at least 6 months beyond your date of arrival, with at least two blank pages.
  • Your visit is short-term, such as tourism, a family visit or business meetings. Work, study and residence in Ukraine need a different visa.

Accommodation requirement

May be requested

Accommodation proof may be requested

Accommodation proof or details may be asked for during the application or at entry.

When accommodation proof is needed, a refundable hotel booking is generally safer than a non-refundable booking.

Required documents

  • Passport: Clear colour scan of the bio-data page of your Indian passport, valid for at least 6 months beyond your date of arrival.
  • Photograph: Recent passport-size colour photo on a plain white background, as a digital file.
  • Flights: Confirmed return or onward ticket showing your dates into and out of Ukraine.
  • Accommodation: Hotel booking, tour voucher or your host's address and contact details in Ukraine.
  • Invitation: An invitation from a Ukrainian host or organisation may be required.
  • Medical insurance: A policy valid in Ukraine for your whole stay.

The exact document checklist for Ukraine is set by its immigration authorities and can change. Contact VisaAdvisory for guidance specific to your trip, and verify on the official immigration or visa portal before payment or travel.

Before you travel
