Tax evaders’ apartments at risk: CCC fines may lead to property confiscation

Property cannot be seized due to a violation of mobilization legislation; however, in case of non-payment of fines from the CCC, such a measure may be applied.

In Ukraine, by the laws “On Mobilization Preparation and Mobilization” and “On Military Duty and Military Service,” administrative fines ranging from 17,000 to 25,500 hryvnias may be imposed for failure to comply with the rules of military registration and mobilization.

If the person subject to mobilization does not pay the imposed fine within 15 days of the decision date, enforcement actions may be initiated. As part of the enforcement proceedings, a debt collection procedure is introduced. Initially, the enforcement service may block the debtor’s bank accounts. If no funds are found in the accounts, seizure of the property is possible in this case.

It is important to note that confiscation of movable or immovable property occurs only by court decision within the framework of enforcement proceedings. Arrest and sale of housing are allowed only if the total debt for fines exceeds 160,000 hryvnias. At the same time, an apartment or house can be confiscated only if the debtor does not have sufficient assets, such as a car, to repay the debt.

It is worth noting that information sources also reported on the exemption of individuals from undergoing a repeated medical examination, as well as cases where unfit Ukrainians lose their disabled status due to technical errors in the system. Separately, the issues of appealing fines from the CCC are considered, which may increase the chances of a successful resolution of the case.
