Ukraine to Romania
How long can I stay, and can I extend it?
No vaccinations are required or recommended for this route.
Can children travel on this route?
If you are under 18, you must carry a notarised letter of parental consent to travel to Romania.
What should I do before I travel?
Check that your ordinary Ukrainian passport is valid for at least six months beyond your date of entry to Romania.
Although travel insurance is recommended, it is not a condition of entry. Make any bookings you need for your trip, such as return travel and hotel reservations, because border officers may ask to see proof of a return flight and a hotel booking and evidence of sufficient funds for your stay.
Romania has diplomatic representation in Ukraine, so any consular application or contact can be handled without leaving Ukraine.
What happens at the border?
No visa is required for Ukrainian citizens for stays of up to 90 days in Romania for tourism. If you plan to stay longer than 90 days you must obtain a visa.
No arrival registration or entry card is required on arrival in Romania.
