Italy to Ukraine visa requirements
Italian passport holders do NOT need a visa to visit Ukraine. You may stay up to 90 days within any 180-day period for tourism or business. As an EU citizen, an Italian ordinary passport holder enjoys visa-free entry to Ukraine for short stays of up to 90 days within any rolling 180-day period. Ukraine is not part of the Schengen area, so the EU's ETIAS travel authorisation and the Entry/Exit System (EES) do NOT apply to entering Ukraine - those only apply when Ukrainian citizens travel into the EU/Schengen zone. No visa, eVisa or pre-travel authorisation is required for Italians. However, Ukraine is under martial law due to the ongoing war: civilian airspace is closed, so entry is via land borders from EU neighbours or Moldova (and some seaports), screening at the border is enhanced, and travellers should carry medical insurance, proof of the purpose of travel, return tickets and proof of sufficient funds (roughly USD 60 per day). The passport should be valid for at least 3 months beyond the planned departure with two blank pages. Most foreign governments, including Italy, advise against travel to Ukraine while the conflict continues; this guide covers entry rules only, not safety.
