In order to register the place of residence of a child who has not reached the age of 14, an application may be submitted by one of the parents. However, the mandatory written consent of the second parent is required. In the case when the application is submitted by only one parent, it is necessary to additionally provide the notarial consent of the second parent.

Registration of the place of residence of minors aged from 14 to 18 years takes place in the general manner, taking into account certain provisions.

First, a person who has reached the age of 14 has the right to independently choose a place of residence, subject to the restrictions established by the Law of Ukraine "On Freedom of Movement and Free Choice of Residence in Ukraine". According to the Family Code of Ukraine, a minor child at the age of 14 can determine his place of residence with one of his parents, depending on his own decision.

Secondly, a person between the ages of 14 and 18 submits his own passport as the main document in which information about the place of residence is entered. If the minor has reached the age of 16 and is on military registration, it is additionally necessary to provide a certificate of registration.

When changing the place of registration, male minors over the age of 16 must first be removed from military registration. Parents or legal representatives can also apply for registration of the place of residence of a minor between the ages of 14 and 18.
