Yes, you need at least one blank page for the entry stamp. The eVisa itself is electronic, but the border officer will stamp your passport.
If you stay airside and don't go through passport control, you don't need a visa. But if you need to enter Ukraine (e.g., to switch terminals or stay overnight), you must have an eVisa.
Extensions are not available for eVisa holders. You must leave before your visa expires. Overstaying can result in fines or a ban.
You can reapply, but first check the rejection reason (usually sent by email). Common issues: incorrect photo, insufficient passport validity, or missing documents. Fix the problem and try again.
