Until May 1, 2025, in the Poltava region, employees of territorial centers of acquisition and social support (TCC and JV) made more than 1500 resolutions for blocking bank accounts. The reason is evasion of mobilization duty and non -payment of fines for violation of the relevant legislation.
The Ministry of Justice of Ukraine reports about it.
The mechanism of locking accounts is valid through enforcement proceedings. If a person after receiving a decision on an administrative offense does not pay a fine within 15 days (according to Article 307 of the Code of Administrative Offenses), the document shall be transferred to the executive service.
Pursuant to Article 308 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, in this case, a double fine is imposed on the person, as well as the expenses provided by the enforcement proceedings are charged. It includes:
-
executive fee;
-
the main reward of the private performer;
-
costs associated with the search of property or debtor;
-
other penalties within the proceedings.
Accounts are arrested both in hryvnia and foreign currency. If the property or funds are jointly owned, the arrest is imposed on the debtor's share.
According to the Cabinet of Ministers Resolution No. 985 of 11.07.2002, a number of vital things are not arrested. Among them:
-
hygiene items, utensils, bedding;
-
Clothes, shoes, children's things;
-
medicines, glasses, medical products;
-
minimal set of furniture (bed, chair, table, cabinet);
-
one refrigerator, TV, PC per family, mobile - for each member;
-
food or money for three months;
-
professional equipment, if it is the only source of income;
-
fuel needed for life;
-
Religious attributes and aid for persons with disabilities.
This rule should guarantee that even in the case of arrest, the debtor will not be deprived of basic living conditions.
In the context of martial law, the arrested property may be removed for the needs of the Defense Forces of Ukraine. This is regulated by the Law on the Legal Regime of Martial Status. It is not only about corporate but also private property - including housing or cars.
Such a decision is made by the local military administration and is applied solely if necessary, with further compensation in accordance with the current legislation.
