I am going to Crimea from Russia. Will I be able to visit Ukraine later?
I am a citizen of Russia. I am planning to visit Crimea in summer 2018 to attend an educational camp. Apparently, I'm in the clear from the point of view of Russian authorities. I'm not sure if Ukrainian authorities may have issues with this. I don't want to lose an opportunity to visit Ukraine on later and separate trips.
- Do I risk being denied entry to Ukraine anytime later if I visit Crimea as a Russian citizen?
- Are there any documents I should file to the Ukrainian authorities?

- Do I risk being denied entry to Ukraine anytime later if I visit Crimea as a Russian citizen?
No, simply because the Ukrainians won't know about it unless you try entering Ukraine from Crimea, carry products labelled as being from Crimea, or are famous enough for your visit to reach the media.
- Are there any documents I should file to the Ukrainian authorities?
No, there is nothing you as a common visitor can do to make the Ukrainians approve of you visiting Crimea.
