New passports from January 1, 2015
A visa-free access to the European Union can be open for biometric passport holders in Ukraine starting from January 2015, Speaker of the Ukraine’s Ministry of Interior Evgen Perebyinis said on-air in the TV 112’s program.
“We should start issuing biometric passports from January 1. If we cope with it, and I’m sure we’ll manage to do it, then just in 2015 we’ll be able to talk about the visa-free regime to Europe for the citizens of Ukraine, holders of biometric passports for entry to the Schengen area”, - Perebyinis said.
