Obtaining Urban Planning Conditions and Restrictions in Ukraine

Obtaining urban planning conditions and restrictions (UPCR) is a critical step in the design and construction of real estate in Ukraine. This document outlines requirements for planning, architecture, and engineering solutions for buildings with an area exceeding 300 m² or objects with complexity categories IV–V. The Consultant legal marketplace offers professional support in preparing and obtaining UPCR, ensuring prompt document processing and compliance with legal standards. Our specialists will help you avoid bureaucratic delays and secure the necessary permits for your project.

Obtaining Urban Planning Conditions: Key Steps

The procedure for obtaining urban planning conditions and restrictions is regulated by the Law of Ukraine “On Regulation of Urban Planning Activities” and Ministry of Regional Development Order No. 109 dated 07.07.2011. To successfully obtain UPCR, several steps must be followed:

1. Document Collection: Preparing an application, proof of ownership or land use rights, a topographic-geodetic plan (scale 1:2000), and an extract from the State Land Cadastre.
2. Application Submission: Filing the application with the authorized body (Administrative Service Center or Department of Urban Planning and Architecture) via the “Diia” portal or in person.
3. Application Review: The authorized body reviews the application within 7–10 working days and issues the UPCR or a substantiated refusal.
4. Document Registration: After issuance, the UPCR is recorded in the Construction Activity Register.

Our lawyers provide full support, from document verification to application submission, to minimize the risk of refusal due to non-compliance.

Legal Assistance in Obtaining UPCR for Construction

Legal assistance greatly simplifies the process of obtaining urban planning conditions and restrictions, especially for complex projects like multi-apartment buildings or commercial real estate. Without professional support, property owners may face issues such as:

• Errors in document preparation leading to refusal.
• Non-compliance of construction intentions with urban planning documentation.
• Delays due to incorrect application submission or missing documents.

Consultant’s specialists offer consultations on legal requirements, verify documents for compliance, and handle submission to authorized bodies. We also assist in cases requiring amendments to UPCR or appealing refusals through court.

Urban Planning Conditions for Real Estate Design

Urban planning conditions and restrictions form the basis for developing project documentation, defining key construction parameters: building height, density, setbacks from red lines, and landscaping requirements. This document is mandatory for:

• Construction of objects with an area exceeding 300 m².
• Reconstruction of buildings with changes to geometric parameters.
• Objects with complexity categories IV–V.

UPCR remain valid until construction is completed, even if the project owner or land owner changes. Our experts will help you correctly formulate construction intentions to avoid discrepancies with state building codes (DBN) and ensure prompt document issuance.

Important! Please note: non-compliance of submitted documents with urban planning requirements may result in a refusal to issue UPCR. Ensure your documents are up-to-date and that construction intentions align with the land’s designated purpose.
