Can Polish Citizen Enter Ukraine With ID?
Can a Polish citizen enter Ukraine only with ID? (without passport) I am interested in both cases: as a transit flight with change in Kiev (to stay only within the airport) and if it's possible to spend a few hours in the city, outside the airport?
Best Answer
You cannot enter Ukraine, but you can change planes at Kiev-Boryspil airport.
As stated in Timatic, the database used by Airlines:
Transit refused to nationals of Poland with a national ID card.
Except when transiting through Kiev Boryspil (KBP) on Ukraine International Airlines (PS).
At the entry to transit security control, a border officer will check your boarding pass and ID card
