ADMINISTRATIVE LIABILITY FOR BREACH OF THE LOCKDOWN MEASURES
In April 2020, the Government introduced fairly strict quarantine regulations, in particular
the prohibition of being on the streets without identity documents, confirming citizenship, or a
special status10. This provision legally prohibits undocumented persons from being on the streets
for any reason, such as acquiring basic necessities and products. The Government has stated on
its official website that these documents will make it possible to check whether a person is obliged
to be self-isolating or under supervision. It will also enable law enforcement agencies to apply
administrative liability to quarantine violators 11 . However, the Unified State Register of Court
Decisions already contains a decision on administrative penalties in the form of a fine of
UAH 17,000 simply for being on the street without documents12.
