At an extraordinary meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine on October 11, amendments were made to Resolution № 1236, which provide for tightening the rules for passenger transportation in regions where a "yellow," "orange," or "red" level of epidemiological danger has been established.
From October 21, interregional transportation (land or air) of passengers in regions with a "yellow," "orange," or "red" level of epidemiological danger will be allowed provided that all drivers, aircrew, and passengers have one of the following documents:
If you are traveling within regions with a yellow epidemic level, you need one of the following documents:
A document confirming receipt of a full course of vaccination or a document confirming receipt of a single dose of a two-dose vaccine;
International, a domestic, or foreign certificate confirming vaccination against COVID-19 with one dose of a single-dose vaccine or two doses of a two-dose vaccine.
Negative test result for COVID-19 by PCR or rapid test for coronavirus antigen SARS-CoV-2, which is valid for 72 hours.
If you are leaving or traveling to a region with a red epidemic level, you will need one of the following documents:
Document confirming receipt of the full course of vaccination
International, a domestic or foreign certificate confirming vaccination against COVID-19 with two doses of two-dose vaccine.
Negative test result for COVID-19 by PCR or rapid test for coronavirus antigen SARS-CoV-2, which is valid for 72 hours.
The new rules of interregional transportation will not apply to minors (below 18 years old).
The law refers to both regular and irregular passenger traffic. Namely, road transport on bus routes, air, and rail interregional transport.
The rules will not apply to urban and intra-regional transportation.
The carrier is responsible for the availability of these documents for all drivers, crew members, and passengers.

Note: On a KyivPost article we could read: "A document confirming that the traveler received a full course of vaccination when traveling to or from “orange” or “red” regions" Such clarification was not possible for us to confirm as the published law omits "orange" regions. Probably by default, "orange" and Red" regions are or were interpreted as requiring the same rules as for "red." (This post will be updated if necessary in that regard)
