📋 Postal Guidelines: China to Ukraine
Postal items dispatched from Mainland China to Ukraine do not require a Ukraine postal code for international transit.
The destination country (Ukraine) must be clearly indicated in Chinese characters on the mail item. The complete destination address, including city and detailed street address, must also be provided in Chinese.
To facilitate final delivery within Ukraine, the complete delivery address must be legibly written in the local language (English or local language).
Including the correct local Ukraine postal code is strongly recommended. This significantly enhances sorting efficiency at Ukraine Post and optimizes last-mile delivery by postal carriers.

Ukrainian postal codes consist of 5 digits (e.g., 01001) without letters or spaces. Codes starting with 01 are for central Kyiv, while others follow regional divisions.
🔍 How to find a Ukrainian postal code?
Use the postal code lookup tool on Ukrposhta's official website by entering city and street names. Third-party sites like postcode.in.ua also provide this service, but verify data freshness.

Packages valued over €100 require a customs declaration (CN23). Prohibited items include cash, jewelry, hazardous materials, and certain electronics—check current lists before sending.
