TB testing requirements for applicants from Ukraine cancelled

The requirements  for  a  TB  test  certificate for applicants from Ukraine have  been temporarily  waived.  

TB  test  facilities  in Kyiv, which was the only approved location in Ukraine,  are  closed  and screening for TB  cannot  reasonably  take  place  and  the relevant  certificate cannot  be reasonably obtained.

Applicants from Ukraine do not have to take a TB test in any other countries neighboring with Ukraine.

However, those nationals of Ukraine who permanently reside in another third country, for whose nationals TB test screening requirements are mandatory, must still take the test in a normal way.

Such measures are in force until further notice.
