Message to U.S. Citizens: Poland/Ukraine Border Open to U.S. Citizens

February 12, 2022

The security situation in Ukraine continues to be unpredictable due to the increased threats of Russian military action and can deteriorate with little notice. U.S. citizens in Ukraine should depart immediately using commercial or other privately available transportation options.

Poland has indicated to the U.S. government that U.S. citizens may now enter Poland through the land border with Ukraine. No advanced approval is required. We encourage those traveling into Poland by land from Ukraine to cross at the Korczowa-Krakovets or Medyka-Shehyni border crossings. U.S. citizens must present a valid U.S. passport and proof of COVID-19 vaccination. Travelers are also encouraged to present a negative test result from a PCR or antigen COVID-19 test, which will facilitate entry into Poland.

U.S. citizens wishing to depart Ukraine by land to countries other than Poland should refer to the Message to U.S. Citizens: Ukraine Land Borders. U.S. citizens who decide to remain in Ukraine and who do not depart immediately as advised, should complete this online form so we may better communicate with you. U.S. citizens in Ukraine should be aware that the U.S. government will not be able to evacuate U.S. citizens in the event of Russian military action anywhere in Ukraine.
