he Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has introduced a requirement for foreigners to have a negative PCR test on COVID-19 in order to enter Ukraine. Ukrainian citizens returning from abroad will also be forced to take tests or to stay on self0isolation. This is evidenced by the resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers from March 22, 2021 № 230.

The beginning of validity of these requirements - from 00:00 24.03.2021. Thus, from now on, foreign citizens will be able to enter Ukraine if they have a negative PCR test for COVID-19, which was conducted no more than 72 hours before crossing the state border, as well as an insurance policy. In the absence of a policy (certificate, certificate) of insurance or a negative test result for COVID-19, SBGS staff will deny foreigners and stateless persons to cross the state border.

Citizens of Ukraine returning from abroad, regardless of the zone of the Ministry of Health in the country of origin, are subject to self-isolation / observation within 14 days in connection with crossing the state border (by installing the mobile application "Action at home"). To release from self-isolation will require a negative PCR test, which was conducted no more than 48 hours before crossing the state border.

Currently, the possibility of early termination of self-isolation after testing in Ukraine remains questionable.

The Verkhovna Rada, Ukraine's parliament, has passed a law imposing a fine for the refusal to wear a face covering on public transport and in public buildings.

The law is aimed at the prevention of the spread of acute respiratory disease COVID-2019 caused by the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 among the population of Ukraine.

Article 44-3 of the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses provides punishment for people staying in public buildings and on public transport during the quarantine without face masks, respirators or protective masks that cover the nose and mouth, including homemade masks, in the form of a fine from 10 to 15 non-taxable minimum incomes of citizens (from UAH 170 ($6) to UAH 255 ($9)).

The offenders also face on-the-spot fines that can be paid via a payment terminal.

The draft law is registered under No. 3891.

According to the draft decision, entry will be allowed if you have an insurance policy that includes cases related to Covid-19.

This is stated in the draft decision, which is available to 'European Truth'. The document is planned to be approved according to the procedure that allows to make government decisions on days when there is no full-fledged government meeting. According to the draft, the complete ban on the entry for the foreigners will be excluded from the resolution. Instead, a new paragraph is added to Article 10. 'On the territory of Ukraine for the period of quarantine' So that means that prohibited is:

4) the crossing of the state border by foreigners and stateless persons (except foreigners, stateless persons permanently residing in Ukraine and persons recognized as refugees, or persons in need of additional protection, employees of diplomatic missions and consular posts of foreign states, missions official international missions, organizations accredited in Ukraine, and members of their families, servicemen (units) of the armed forces of NATO member states and member states of the NATO 'Partnership for Peace' program participating in the training of units of the Armed Forces), without an existing insurance policy (certificate) issued by an insurance company registered in Ukraine or a foreign insurance company with a representative office in Ukraine or a contractual relationship with a partner insurance company in Ukraine (assistance) and covering costs, associated with COVID-19 treatment, observation, and valid for a period of stay in Ukraine.

5) crossing checkpoints of entry into the temporarily occupied territories in Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts, the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol and departure from them by foreigners and stateless persons without an existing insurance policy (certificate) issued by an insurance company registered in Ukraine, or a foreign insurance company that has a representative office in Ukraine or a contractual relationship with an insurance company - a partner in the country (assistance), and covers the costs associated with the treatment of COVID-19, and is valid for the period of stay in Ukraine.

The procedure for self-isolation in case of receiving a negative PCR test for foreigners who "came from the state or are citizens of states with a high prevalence of COVID-19" is set identical to that for Ukrainians who came from such states. An exception is set for certain categories of foreigners, such as diplomats, NATO instructors, etc.

We are reminding you, that earlier the spokesman of the State Border Guard Service confirmed that the general ban on entry for the foreigners from today is de facto expired.

At the following airports - in Lviv, Kharkiv, Odessa cities - you can take the COVID-19 test immediately upon arrival. Modern laboratories have started working there.
At the Danylo Halytsky International Airport in Lviv, coronavirus testing is performed by the Unilab laboratory. You can take the PCR test immediately upon arrival. The results should be ready within a day, they will be transferred to the Public Health Center, which, in turn, will redirect them to the 'Dii Vdoma' application...
Not only passengers arriving from the countries of the "red zone" can pass the test for coronavirus, but also passengers who are preparing to fly from the airport "Lviv".
You can only pay for PCR testing in cash. In a special form you will need to indicate the data, signature and phone number registered in the application "Dii Vdoma".

From July 18, the laboratory of the MTM Medical Center opened at Kharkiv Airport. The pick-up point is located on the ground floor of Terminal A and works on a schedule adapted for flights from the "red zone" countries. The price of the service is UAH 1,800 in the period from 08:00 to 21:59 and UAH 2,100 in the period from 22:00 to 07:59. You can pay both in cash and by card.
In case of a negative test, passengers will be able to complete the isolation ahead of schedule according to the following algorithm:

• within 24 hours after taking the tests, the laboratory enters the test result into the electronic system of the Public Health Center;
• data entered by the laboratory is automatically synchronized with the app "Dii Vdoma";
• the app "Dii Vdoma" informs the passenger about the possibility of termination of self-isolation

According to the same scheme, you can take a test for Covid-19 at the airport in Odessa.
The laboratory started working there on July 21. Depending on the time of delivery of the analysis, the results will be known in 24-48 hours.
The mobile collection point is located in a separate room of the medical center on the ground floor of the terminal. It will operate during international flights and flights from Boryspil Airport.

Restrictions act locally, while Ukraine is divided into four "colour zones" – green, yellow, orange and red - depending on the number and growth rate of new COVID-19 cases, hospital capacity and testing rates.

Yellow, orange, or red color indicator for epidemic hazards are determined for a region with a high prevalence of COVID-19, where at least one of the following signs appears:

1. Bed occupancy rate in healthcare facilities for patients with a confirmed COVID-19 cases are more than

yellow - 50% for five consecutive days;

orange - from 50% to 75% of beds are occupied;

red - 75% and more beds are occupied.

2. The average number of polymerase chain reaction tests and enzyme-linked immunosorbent tests is less than 24 per 100,000 population in the last seven days: orange - less than 24 tests per 100,000 population per day for five consecutive days.

3. The incidence rate of COVID-19 in 14 days exceeds the baseline (40 new cases per 100,000 population): green - the incidence of COVID-19 is less than the baseline.

If an orange or red level of epidemic danger is determined for the cities of the region, inhabited by 75% or more of the total region population, the same level will be determined determined for the whole region.

In 'green zones' social distancing and mask-wearing regulations still works, and mass events are limited. In red zones, public transport is suspended, as is the work of most non-essential facilities. The zones can be updated on a daily basis – the government and local authorities have indicated that they may enact local lockdowns at short notice – and enforcement or relaxation of new rules may not happen immediately. You should check the status of regions regularly on an interactive map below.

From October 26 most part of Ukraine belongs to the orange zone, some regions are red.
