About the Embassy of Denmark in Ukraine

The ambassador is Thomas Lund-Soerensen, according to the directory of foreign diplomatic missions published by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine (October 2026), which gives 7 October 2025 as the date credentials were presented. The office is in the capital, Kyiv, about 29 km in a straight line from Boryspil International Airport. Ukraine’s airspace remains closed to civil flights, according to GOV.UK travel advice (October 2026).

Do Danish citizens need a visa for Ukraine?

Holders of ordinary Danish passports do not need a visa for stays of up to 90 days within any 180-day period in Ukraine, according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine’s entry-regime table (as of 8 June 2023). Ukraine is not part of the Schengen area and applies its own visa rules.

What Danish citizens usually need to bring for the most common requests, based on official Danish government information:
