Arriving via Poland

Przemysl is a border station, and the journey continues on Ukrainian Railways trains, which takes approximately two hours. Tickets can also be purchased on the website - booking.uz.gov.ua.
IMPORTANT: June is a busy month, so it's important to buy tickets as soon as possible. Sales open 20 days in advance.
Routes from other countries will also include transfers at border stations. Schedules are subject to change, so it's best to check available options on the websites of the relevant national railway companies closer to your travel time. Travel options via Poland are more numerous and schedules change less frequently.
