Residence registration

Register a residential address through a community authority or CNAP using a paper application.

Moving boxes and a houseplant in a living room

These are general requirements for the procedure. Availability at each reception point is verified separately. Confirm reception arrangements and current requirements before visiting.

Fee

1.5% of the statutory subsistence minimum for able-bodied persons on 1 January of the application year; 2.5% for late registration. Ask the community for the current-year amount and payment details.

Processing time

One working day with a complete application.

Who can apply

Ukrainian citizens aged 14 or over, and foreigners or stateless persons lawfully resident in Ukraine. Children under 14 use a separate procedure.

Documents to prepare

  • Application and an identity document.
  • Ownership, tenancy or other residence-right evidence; otherwise the prescribed consents of owners and other authorised persons.
  • Administrative-fee payment confirmation.
  • Military registration document where the requirement applies.
  • Where relevant, representative documents and mortgagee or security-trustee consent; foreigners also need the relevant passport and an authenticated translation.

How to apply

  1. Apply to the registration authority or CNAP serving the home’s address.
  2. Prepare proof of the right to live there or the necessary consents, pay the fee and submit the application and documents.
  3. Check the registration result and request a separate extract if needed.

What you receive

Residence registration or a reasoned refusal.

Registering an address or confirming an existing record

First identify the result you need. Registering a new residential address and obtaining an extract confirming an existing record are separate applications. This page covers registration; the main sections above explain eligibility, documents and submission requirements. Address registration should also be distinguished from permission to reside in Ukraine.

Choosing the correct application

How can I find the appropriate registration office?

Check the registration authority or CNAP serving the home’s address. The directory of points with confirmed service availability can help you find contacts, but territorial responsibility and visiting arrangements need to be checked with the institution.

What if I only need proof of my registered address?

Read the separate residence-extract procedure. There is also a separate procedure page for registering a child under 14.
