Paraguayan nationals travel to Ukraine visa-free for up to 90 days. Paraguayan IPS does not cover treatment outside Paraguay; a separate policy is required at every crossing.
Approximately ~300 travelers from Paraguay visit Ukraine annually.
Paraguayan IPS (public health) does not cover treatment abroad. A Ukrainian-compliant insurance policy is required at every land crossing into Ukraine.
