Who it suits

Owners who need someone on the ground in Kyiv.

  • You live in another city or abroad and want to let your apartment in Kyiv.
  • You own several apartments and have no time for tenants, viewings and paperwork.
  • You own commercial premises that need a tenant and someone to look after them.
  • You inherited an apartment and the documents are still in progress. The law gives six months to accept an inheritance (Art. 1270(1) of the Civil Code of Ukraine); the agency's lawyer helps with the documents.

You choose the tasks from the table; the agreement fixes the final scope.

Power of attorney from abroad

On what basis the agency acts on your behalf.

To sign documents and deal with third parties on your behalf, the agency needs a power of attorney. A power of attorney is the written document used for representation before third parties (Art. 244 of the Civil Code of Ukraine). Its form follows the form of the transaction: if the transaction must be notarised, the power of attorney is notarised too (Art. 245(1) of the Civil Code).

  • In Ukraine: at any Ukrainian notary.
  • Abroad: at a Ukrainian consulate, or at a local notary with an apostille. Ukraine is a party to the Hague Apostille Convention of 1961, in force for Ukraine since 22 December 2003 (HCCH status table). A document in a foreign language also needs a certified Ukrainian translation.

You decide the scope of the powers. The scope of work, timing and the agency fee are fixed in a written agreement before we start. The wording of the power of attorney can be checked by the agency's lawyer: legal support for property in Ukraine.

Tax on rental income

The owner, as the one receiving the income, pays the tax.

Income from letting housing is taxed at 18% personal income tax plus 5% military levy (Tax Code of Ukraine, items 167.1 and 170.1). If the tenant is an individual, the owner pays the tax after each quarter; if the tenant is a company or a sole proprietor (FOP), the tenant withholds it. How this applies to you, including if you live abroad, the agency's lawyer explains in a 30-minute consultation for €100.
