About the Hamburg to Kyiv shipping route by road

The road shipping route from Hamburg, Germany to Kyiv, Ukraine is 1,621 km (1,007 miles) on the truck network, heading east. In a straight line the cities are 1,442 km apart, so the road adds 12%.

Transit time for one driver is about 42 h 12 min, of which 20 h 12 min at the wheel. We assume 9 driving hours a day and an 11 hour rest between shifts, as EU drivers' hours rules require. A two driver team can keep the truck moving and cut the trucking transit time almost in half.

Road freight on Hamburg to Kyiv is booked as FTL (a full truck for one shipper) or LTL and groupage (you pay for the pallet places you use). FTL is faster and safer for high value goods; groupage is cheaper for a few pallets but adds consolidation time. The trip crosses from Germany into Ukraine, so the truck travels on a CMR consignment note, plus export and import declarations at the border.
