Legal support for the creation of an apartment building association
An association of co-owners of an apartment building is created by the owners of apartments and non-residential premises located in such a building, in accordance with the current Law of Ukraine No. 2866-III. Involving lawyers at the stage of creation helps to ensure the legal purity of all procedures, as well as create an association capable of properly performing the functions assigned to it. Below are the main features of such a procedure and the reasons why legal support may be useful to you.
Algorithm of actions for creating an association
Holding a constituent meeting
The general (constituent) meeting is one of the governing bodies of the association. It is at this meeting that key decisions are made regarding its creation and further activities. To convene such a meeting, it is worth going through a step-by-step procedure:
- creating an initiative group (consisting of at least three apartment owners);
- writing a written notification to other owners no later than ten days before the scheduled date;
- electing a chairman by a majority vote of those present;
- discussing agenda items, in particular, choosing the name, composition, making a decision on state registration, etc.;
- making decisions by voting co-owners (50% + one vote is required to approve the relevant decision at the constituent meeting).
Drawing up a decision to establish an ACMH
Decisions are drawn up in a protocol, which is signed by the chairman and secretary of the meeting. Poll sheets are necessarily attached to the protocol. In addition to the issues listed above, the decision must necessarily cover the following points:
- election of the board and its chairman;
- approval of the Charter as the main constituent document;
- total number of co-owners of the building.
Finally, no later than fifteen days from the date of the meeting, the chairman notifies each co-owner in writing about the decisions made and the voting results. This is followed by the state registration procedure.
Registration of an ACMH as a non-profit organization
It is from the moment of making the appropriate entry in the unified state register that the ACMH is considered officially established. For state registration, it is necessary to contact the Central Administrative Center or a local notary, submitting a mandatory list of documents:
- two copies of the Charter;
- two copies of the minutes of the constituent meeting;
- application for state registration of the established sample (according to the form approved by the Ministry of Justice).
Additionally, it is also worth providing the registrar with a document confirming the payment of the administrative fee. You can also learn more about the features of registering an condominium association by reading the article by one of the lawyers “Prikhodko and Partners”.

Price of legal support for the creation of an condominium in 2025
The price of such a service is not fixed and can vary significantly depending on various factors of each client’s request. But as a general rule, the procedure will include the following costs:
- administrative fee for state registration of a condominium (910 UAH);
- notary services for entering information into the unified state register (determined depending on the pricing policy of a local specialist);
- lawyer services for developing constituent documents and holding meetings (calculated in consultation with the relevant specialist and depending on the scope of work, urgency of the request, taking into account the need for the physical presence of a lawyer during registration);
- other administrative costs (postage, making a seal, etc.).
Summing up, the creation of a condominium is an important step for the effective management of the common property of apartment owners.
