Legalize MAF (temporary structure)
MAF (small architectural form) is a real estate object that functions independently from other real estate, according to general practice it is a temporary structure without a foundation, which is most often installed for the purpose of carrying out entrepreneurial activities. The following objects are included in the category of temporary structures: pavilions, kiosks, shopping arcades, seasonal areas, terraces. These must be one-story buildings made of lightweight structures.
Each MAF must necessarily obtain an official permit to carry out the relevant activity. Legalizing a temporary structure in Kyiv is a service provided by lawyers “PRIKHODKO & PARTNERS”.
Main characteristics of MAFs
- A temporary structure for carrying out a particular business activity may or may not have an additional closed room for temporary accommodation of people.
- The State Classifier of Buildings and Structures contains the definition of the term “building”, their classification and list. Temporary structures do not belong to the category of buildings and do not act as real estate.
- Thus, MAFs are movable property. However, despite this, temporary structures must be installed taking into account not only construction, but also other norms relevant to structures and surrounding buildings.

What documents are required to legalize a temporary structure?
Depending on the region of Ukraine, different procedures may be used for obtaining documents – permits for the installation of a MAF. First, in any case, it is worth obtaining permission to lease a land plot. This issue is resolved at meetings of local authorities. The only thing that remains unchanged is the form of the permit document for a MAF, the temporary structure binding passport.
The temporary structure binding passport is the main document that gives the right to legally install a MAF. It determines:
- location,
- dimensions,
- term of operation,
- technical conditions for connection (if any),
- restrictions on landscaping, appearance, etc.
Standard list of documents for legalizing a temporary structure (obtaining a binding passport):
- Application
- Graphic materials indicating the desired location of the TS in accordance with the Comprehensive Scheme (if available)
- Situational scheme.
- Photograph of the TS installation site
- Sketches and plans of TS facades
- Visualization of the temporary structure
- Scheme for the improvement of the adjacent territory.
- Technical conditions for engineering support (if available)
- Drawing scheme of nodes – connection to engineering networks
- License issued by DIAM.
After the MAF is installed, the question arises of connecting it to the power grid. For this, it is necessary to assess the technical conditions and perform verification calculations.
The submitted application together with the package of documents are considered by the relevant authorities for 15-20 working days. After a positive decision is made, a binding passport is provided. This is the main construction document, without which the construction of the MAF will be considered illegal.
As a general rule, the passport of attachment is considered valid for five years. After the arrangement of the MAF, it is added to the authorized capital of the enterprise. The owner of the temporary structure must contact the representatives of the Department of Urban Planning and Architecture as soon as possible with a corresponding application confirming the fulfillment of the requirements of the passport of attachment.
The submitted application together with the package of documents are considered by the relevant authorities within 15-20 working days. After a positive decision is made, a passport of attachment is provided. This is the main construction document, without which the construction of the MAF will be considered illegal.
