US Warns Dual Citizens Will Be Stuck in Ukraine Under Mobilization Law

Ukrainian men ages 18-60 with American citizenship cannot leave

On Tuesday, the US Embassy in Ukraine issued a warning to US-Ukrainian dual citizens that they may no longer be able to leave Ukraine under the country’s new mobilization law.

Under martial law that was imposed in February 2022, Ukrainian males ages 18 to 60 cannot leave the country. Before the new mobilization law took effect, there were exceptions for dual US-Ukrainian nationals, but now they can be forced to stay.

“The US Embassy in Kyiv understands that, effective June 1, Ukraine has eliminated a ‘residence abroad’ exception that previously allowed certain Ukrainian males aged 18 to 60 to depart the country. After this change, US-Ukrainian dual citizens, including those who live in the United States, may no longer be able to depart the country,” the US Embassy said.
