What is the debt collection process in Ukraine?
Preparation of documents proving existence of accounts payable (loan agreement, account statement and/or calculation of debt, cash advance application, etc.);
- lodging a complaint against debtor, if the agreement or law provide for complaint lodging procedure;
- preparing and filing an application to court for debt collection;
- participation in court hearings;
- entry of court ruling in the bank’s favor.
The most widely-used and efficient method of securing a complaint is a court ruling placing a debtor’s property under arrest, which means that a debtor is temporarily deprived of the right to manage his property. The court may rule to arrest a debtor’s property on lawful grounds after hearing a creditor’s application for security of complaint, which must explain the circumstances necessitating, in the applicant’s opinion, the placement of arrest. The application must also meet other requirements of the procedural law. The degree of justification and commensurability of debt with the placement of debtor’s property under arrest is decided by court in every particular case.
Under Article 25 of the Law of Ukraine On Enforcement Proceedings a state enforcer is obliged to accept an enforcement writ for enforcement and open enforcement proceedings, if the deadline for enforcement of this writ has not expired yet, the writ meets the applicable requirements of law and was presented for enforcement to the appropriate body of SES. A resolution on the opening of enforcement proceedings must be issued within three business days after receiving an enforcement writ, and the copies thereof must be served to the collector and debtor by the following business day.
At collector’s request, a state enforcer may, at the same time with issuing a resolution on the opening of enforcement proceedings, may place the debtor’s property and funds under arrest by issuing an appropriate resolution.
It is important to remember that a state enforcer must enforce collection of debt within six months after a resolution on the opening of enforcement proceedings was issued.

3 to 5 years
Can late payment fees / interest to be added to claims?
