Nova Post, the international arm of Ukraine’s leading private courier company Nova Poshta, has launched delivery services in the United States, marking the company’s expansion into its 17th country, the company reported on February 18.
Nova Post announced that, through a partnership with global logistics firm UPS, customers can now send documents and parcels weighing up to 30 kilograms from the US to Ukraine via more than 6,000 UPS Store partner locations nationwide. Delivery is expected to take from seven days.

“This partnership is a strategic move that allows us to respond flexibly to customer needs, strengthen our position in the large international market, and lay the foundation for further development,” Nova co-owner Vyacheslav Klimov told Forbes.
According to him, Nova plans to speed up delivery times (from 5 days), expand its range of services, in particular, scale up targeted delivery, and open franchise branches in major cities across the country.
Nova Post, founded in 2001 as Nova Poshta, has grown into one of Ukraine’s largest private postal and express delivery providers, serving both individuals and businesses.
The company operates an extensive domestic network of more than 14,000 branches and 25,000 parcel lockers across Ukraine, while also expanding rapidly into foreign markets.
Despite operating under constant threat from Russian military strikes on civilian infrastructure, Nova Poshta has continued to expand and develop its services.
The company has repeatedly suffered damage to its facilities from Russian attacks—including the destruction of a sorting terminal in Kharkiv in January 2026, which killed employees and injured others in what Nova Poshta called a war crime, as well as earlier missile strikes on sorting depots in Kyiv and other regions.

Nevertheless, the company maintains operations across Ukraine and beyond, delivers millions of parcels daily even during air raids, and has significantly expanded its international network since the invasion began, opening new branches across Europe and pushing into global markets. Its resilience under fire has made it one of the few major Ukrainian businesses to keep growing through the war, according to Reuters report.
The launch in the United States represents another step in Nova Post’s international growth, aimed at improving cross-border logistics links with Ukraine for both personal shipments and commercial deliveries.
Earlier, Ukraine’s Nova Poshta airline “Supernova” had received permission to carry out air cargo transportation international flights from and to Ukraine.
This marked the first time since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale invasion that a civilian plane was granted permission to operate. Ukraine closed its entire airspace to all civil flights on February 24, 2022, due to the risk of becoming intentional or accidental military targets.
