Do I need a transit visa for Ukraine for a layover of 22 hours?
I am an Indian passport holder travelling to Berlin (TXL) from New Delhi (DEL). I am going through Ukrainian International Airlines which has a layover of 22 hours in Kiev (IEV).
My question is, do I need a transit visa beforehand if I want to leave the airport or if not can I stay in the airport without a transit visa? Another question is, is it possible for me to talk to the immigration officer to grant me a conditional single entry visa for a day at the airport (I heard somewhere that it's possible in some countries)?
I have German National visa till December (although I don't think it matters).

If you have an Indian passport, you will need to apply for Ukrainian visa here. Unfortunately for you, they don't provide e-visas for Indian nationals.
