Is travel insurance mandatory for Canadians entering Ukraine?

No, it is not mandatory for visa-free stays up to 90 days. However, it is strongly recommended and may be requested at border checkpoints.

What is the minimum medical coverage required?

Ukrainian authorities commonly expect a minimum of $30,000 in medical coverage. Our policy meets this requirement.

Where can Canadians check current Ukraine border rules?

Check current guidance from the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine before travel, and compare it with Canadian consular advice for your route. Related authority: State Border Guard Service of Ukraine.

Does the policy cover war-related injuries?

Yes, limited war risk coverage is included for injuries from unforeseen war events, but it excludes travel to active combat zones and participation in hostilities.

Can I get a refund if I cancel my trip?

Our policy does not include trip cancellation coverage. It focuses on medical and emergency benefits. Consider a separate travel cancellation policy if needed.

How do I file a claim?

Traveling from Canada to Ukraine: what to know

Direct flights from Canada to Ukraine are currently suspended due to airspace restrictions. Most travelers fly via European hubs such as Warsaw, Krakow, or Chisinau, then continue by land or train. Check the latest travel advisories from Global Affairs Canada before departure.

The security situation in Ukraine remains volatile due to the ongoing war. Certain regions are under active conflict and should be avoided. Travel insurance with war risk coverage can provide limited protection, but it does not cover travel to high-risk areas or participation in hostilities.

No direct flights from Canada; transit via EU countries recommended

Avoid travel to eastern and southern regions near conflict zones

Why Canadians need travel insurance for Ukraine

Although not mandatory for visa-free entry, travel insurance is strongly recommended for Canadian visitors to Ukraine. The country's healthcare system is under strain due to the war, and medical costs for foreigners can be high. Insurance ensures you receive timely care without financial burden.

Border officials may request proof of insurance, and having a policy with $30,000 coverage can help avoid delays or entry issues. Additionally, war risk coverage provides peace of mind in an unpredictable environment.

How to choose the right insurance policy

When selecting a policy, ensure it meets the minimum $30,000 medical coverage commonly expected. Look for policies that include war risk coverage, as standard travel insurance often excludes war-related incidents.

Consider the duration of your stay and any planned activities. If you intend to travel to multiple countries, check if the policy covers other destinations. Our policy is valid only in Ukraine.
