On July 28, 2021, the Government of Ukraine changed the border crossing rules to counter the Delta coronavirus strain. New changes to the "quarantine" regulation №1236 of December 9, 2020 should help detect and counteract the spread of coronavirus, in particular its "Delta" strain.
The coronavirus strain Delta is actively spreading in Western Europe and the countries that our citizens choose for summer travel. We are proposing new rules for crossing the border to reduce the possibility of the virus spreading in Ukraine if someone becomes infected abroad. Also, thanks to this, we will be able to conduct better epidemic investigations in case of detection of the carrier. Self-isolation or observation of unvaccinated people from COVID-19 will help control and reduce the chance of a new large-scale outbreak, ”the minister commented.
These decisions will take effect 7 days after the publication of the decision. Citizens who have gone abroad still return to Ukraine without hindrance.
