Overview
When a notarial consent is required
Many transactions in Ukraine need the written consent of another person: a spouse for selling joint property, a parent for a child's documents, co-owners for selling a share. If the consent is missing or wrongly worded, the transaction can be blocked or challenged.
01
Your spouse is selling joint property
02
A child needs a passport or travel consent
03
A co-owner is selling a share
04
An authority asks for an affidavit or sworn statement

FAQ
What clients ask before filing
Not covered here? Ask an attorney directly during your consultation.
What if the other spouse refuses to consent?
A transaction without required consent can be challenged. In some cases the question can be resolved through property division.
Can a consent be general?
It is safer to specify the transaction, but some consents can cover a type of transaction.
Do children need parental consent to travel?
Rules depend on the child's age, the accompanying adult and current border regulations. We check the current rules before the trip.
Is consent needed for every sale of property?
It is needed when the property is joint marital property, which is usually the case for property acquired during marriage.
Can a spouse's consent be signed abroad?
Yes, at a Ukrainian consulate or before a local notary with apostille and translation.
