Travelers should be aware of petty crime, particularly in crowded areas, tourist spots and on public transport.

Health CareThe health service does, in theory, provide free medical treatment for all citizens and travelers who become ill. However, as in most parts of the former Soviet Union, health care is a serious problem. For minor difficulties, visitors are advised to ask the management at their hotels for help. For major problems, visitors are well advised to seek help outside the country. The UK and Ukraine have a bilateral agreement on emergency medical treatment, so UK travelers should not need to pay an insurance levy on arrival. Travel insurance is strongly recommended however. It is advisable to take a supply of those medicines that are likely to be required (but check first that they may be legally imported) as medicines can prove difficult to obtain. Travelers are advised to contact their Embassy, in the first instance, for advice on where to get medical help.
Note1Typhoid may occur in rural areas.
