Abstract: We study global regularity properties of Sobolev homeomorphisms on $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds under the assumption of $p$-integrability of its first weak derivatives in degree $pgeqn-1$. We prove that inverse homeomorphisms have integrable first weak derivatives. For the case $p>n$ we obtain necessary conditions for existence of Sobolev homeomorphisms between manifolds. These necessary conditions based on Poincar'e type inequality: ${\displaystyle }$ inf_{cin mathbb R} |u-cmid L_{infty}(M)|leq K |umid L^1_{infty}(M)|. ${\displaystyle }$ As a corollary we obtain the following geometrical necessary condition: {em If there exists a Sobolev homeomorphisms $phi:Mo{M}^{\prime }$, $phiin{W}_p^1(M,M^{\prime })$, $p>n$, $J(x,phi)e0$ a. e. in $M$, of compact smooth Riemannian manifold $M$ onto Riemannian manifold $M^{\prime }$ then the manifold $M^{\prime }$ has finite geodesic diameter.}}
