Alimony in Ukraine: a record 11.6 billion hryvnias collected in 9 months.

According to inkorr.com: During the first nine months of 2025, Ukrainian enforcement agencies collected or restored 11.6 billion hryvnias in alimony. This is 29.4% more than in the same period last year. This information was provided by the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine.

Situation with Debtors

As of October 1, 2025, more than 189 thousand individuals have alimony arrears. Of these, measures stipulated by law, such as restrictions on travel abroad, driving vehicles, and possessing firearms, have been applied to almost 150 thousand. The highest number of debtors who have not paid alimony for more than three months was recorded in the Dnipropetrovsk, Kharkiv, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Odesa regions. The least number of debtors was found in the Chernivtsi, Ternopil, and Luhansk regions.

According to representatives of the Ministry of Justice: 'We remind you: alimony is not charity or a voluntary initiative, but a legal obligation of parents to their children. Those who evade this obligation must bear responsibility under the law.'

Increasing Work Efficiency

Ukrainian enforcement agencies have significantly intensified their work regarding alimony collection, which has led to an increase in the total amount of funds collected compared to last year. However, the problem of alimony non-payment remains relevant in many regions of the country, requiring further attention and control. The authorities plan to take measures to rectify the situation and respond to violations of the law.

The increasing volumes of collected alimony testify to Ukraine's efforts to address this problem. However, the presence of such a large number of debtors indicates that the work in this direction is still far from complete. Restoring justice for children dependent on alimony remains a priority for the state.
