Registration of Relatives in the Apartment - What Restrictions Exist.

The procedure of registering a place of residence, or registration, is very important for citizens of Ukraine, as it affects access to social services and rights. Also, it is common practice to register relatives in an apartment. The law does not restrict the number of registered persons in one dwelling, so it all depends on the owner of the privatized apartment.

If this is your personal living space, you have the right to decide whom you include in the registration. Registration does not turn relatives into co-owners; it is merely a confirmation of their place of residence. In the case of non-privatized housing, the situation may be more complicated, as registration can affect the future privatization of the apartment.
