Ukraine sets its own requirements for bringing in dogs and cats. From any departure country your pet needs veterinary health certificate and rabies antibody titre test. The rules are the same for dogs and cats.
Order matters more than the list: the microchip goes in before the rabies vaccination, or the vaccination does not count.

The limits people find out about last: how many animals one person may bring, the minimum age and which breeds are turned away at the border.

The full list of documents and procedures for entering Ukraine. Every item carries its official source and last-checked date, and is marked as always required or required only from some departure countries.
Authorised accredited laboratories for rabies antibody testing: State Research Institute of Laboratory Diagnostics and Veterinary Sanitary Expertise, Address: Kyiv, Donetska St., 30, 03151.
Please note that the veterinary sanitary passport and veterinary certificate Form-1 are issued at the state veterinary medicine clinic.

Steps marked “depends on origin” are not needed by everyone — see the table above or check your own route.
Our route graph has no direct flights to this country, so we do not build a reference route. The requirements above are unaffected — they apply however the pet arrives.
