APPEALING THE REFUSAL TO CROSS THE STATE BORDER

In accordance with the Decree of the President of Ukraine “On the introduction of martial law in Ukraine” dated February 24, 2022 № 64/2022, in connection with the introduction of martial law in Ukraine temporarily, for the period of the legal regime of martial law, constitutional rights and freedoms of a person and citizen, provided for in Articles 30-34, 38, 39, 41-44, 53 of the Constitution of Ukraine. In particular, the right to cross the state border by men aged 18 to 60 is restricted.

The issue of crossing the state border during martial law on the territory of Ukraine is regulated by the Rules for crossing the state border by citizens of Ukraine, approved by the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine dated January 27, 1995 № 57.

These Rules establish cases when men from 18 to 60 years old have the right to cross the border of Ukraine during martial law in Ukraine, in particular:

• persons with disabilities in the presence of relevant supporting documents;
• persons who have a wife (spouse) from among persons with disabilities and accompany such a spouse (spouse) to travel outside Ukraine;
• persons who have one of the parents or parents of a wife (spouse) from among persons with disabilities of group I or II and accompany one of such parents to travel outside Ukraine;
• persons providing permanent care for persons with disabilities of group I or II and accompanying such persons to travel outside Ukraine and other cases.
