Small-scale privatisation through Prozorro is the sale of state and municipal property worth up to 250 million UAH: non-residential premises, buildings, going-concern property complexes, unfinished construction, and individual assets. The procedure is governed by Law of Ukraine No. 2269-VIII \u201cOn Privatisation of State and Municipal Property\u201d, and its main rule is simple: such assets are sold exclusively through electronic auctions on the Prozorro.Sale system. There are no arrangements outside the system: every asset for sale is published in the electronic trading system, and anyone who meets the statutory requirements may take part.<\/p>\n

An open procedure is not the same as a simple one. Bidders lose money and time by failing to check the asset and buying premises with encumbrances or debts, missing the deadlines for filing documents, overlooking the conditions of sale (for example an obligation to keep the same line of business), or, having won, failing to sign the contract within the 30 days allowed and forfeiting the deposit. A separate risk area is the restrictions on bidders: the law bars from the auction persons connected with the aggressor state, sanctioned persons, and structures with opaque offshore ownership.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n

We support participation in small-scale privatisation auctions from checking the asset to registering title: we verify the lot\u2019s legal position and the conditions of sale, prepare the documents, guide the client through registration and bidding, execute the sale contract and, where necessary, challenge breaches of procedure.<\/p>\n

The legal basis and the types of auction<\/h2>\n

Small-scale privatisation rests on Law No. 2269-VIII, with the details set by Cabinet Resolutions No. 432 of 10 May 2018 (the procedure for electronic auctions selling small-privatisation assets) and No. 433 of 10 May 2018 (selection of electronic platform operators and the system administrator). The starting price is derived from the asset\u2019s book or appraised value, and the sale itself runs through three successive formats:<\/p>\n

<\/svg><\/span>

Auction with an increasing starting price<\/h3>

English style: bidders raise the price in turn from the starting level.<\/p><\/div><\/article>

<\/svg><\/span>

Auction with a reduced starting price<\/h3>

Held if the first auction fails: the starting price is halved, and bidding then rises again.<\/p><\/div><\/article>

<\/svg><\/span>

Auction by stepped reduction<\/h3>

Dutch style, followed by sealed bids: the price falls in steps until someone stops the bidding, after which the bidders compete against each other.<\/p><\/div><\/article><\/div>\n

The sellers are the state privatisation authorities and local councils; the buyers are individuals and companies registered in Ukraine or abroad, except those the law expressly bars. Before bidding on a lot it is worth running legal due diligence<\/a> on the asset so as not to buy property with hidden encumbrances.<\/p>\n

Stages of taking part in a small-privatisation auction<\/h2>\n
  1. Choosing the asset<\/strong> in the system and studying the conditions of sale: line of business, encumbrances, deadlines.<\/li>
  2. Registration<\/strong> on an accredited electronic platform of the Prozorro.Sale system.<\/li>
  3. Payment of the registration fee and the deposit.<\/strong><\/li>
  4. Submitting a bid<\/strong> and taking part in the auction.<\/li>
  5. If you win<\/strong> \u2014 signing the protocol of the auction results.<\/li>
  6. Signing the sale contract<\/strong> with the privatisation authority and paying the price.<\/li>
  7. Registering the transfer<\/strong> of title.<\/li><\/ol>

    10 %<\/b>the deposit, as a share of the starting price<\/div>
    30 days<\/b>to sign the contract after the protocol<\/div><\/div>\n

    The registration fee is 0.2 of the minimum wage as at 1 January of the auction year: in 2026 that is 1,729.40 UAH. The deposit is 10 % of the lot\u2019s starting price; the exact figure is always stated in the notice, and for an auction with a reduced starting price it is calculated on the reduced figure. The winner\u2019s deposit counts towards the price; an unsuccessful bidder\u2019s deposit is returned. A winner who does not sign or pay forfeits the deposit entirely.<\/p>\n

    What to check in a lot before bidding<\/h2>\n

    Checking one asset takes a few working days and is built on public registers:<\/p>\n
