The Government Has Restricted the Ability to Construct Attached Housing on the Basis of a Construction Passport

The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine adopted Resolution No. 305 dated March 4, 2026, which amended the procedure for the construction of facilities based on a construction passport or a schematic plan of construction intentions for a land plot.

The document effectively restricts the ability to use the simplified procedure for constructing multi-apartment buildings in the private sector.

What exactly has changed?

The Resolution clarified the list of facilities that can be constructed on the basis of a construction passport.

This procedure now applies exclusively to individual residential development, in particular:

▪️ individual (single-family) residential houses
▪️ garden and country houses
▪️ outbuildings and structures
▪️ garages and other auxiliary facilities

At the same time, the design and construction of the following must be carried out on the basis of urban planning conditions and restrictions (UPCR):

• semi-detached residential houses (an apartment-type house consisting of two or more apartments, each having direct access to an adjacent plot or the street)
• three or more attached residential houses (two or more residential (single-family, garden, country) houses sharing a common wall built along the boundary of separate land plots).

What does this mean for developers?

• The construction passport is definitively consolidated as an instrument for individual development, rather than for commercial developer projects.
• To construct attached or semi-detached developments, it is now mandatory to obtain urban planning conditions and restrictions.
