In accordance with the Law on the State Budget for 2024, the subsistence minimum for children under the age of 6 is UAH 2,563. For children aged 6 to 18, the subsistence minimum is UAH 3,196.

The minimum amount of alimony per child cannot be less than 50% of the subsistence minimum for a child of the appropriate age. This is stated in the Family Code of Ukraine.

That is, the minimum amount of alimony for a child under the age of 6 is UAH 1,281.5. Children aged 6 to 18 years - UAH 1,598.

According to Part 5 of Article 183 of the Civil Code, the maximum amount of alimony is 10 subsistence minimums per child. That is, the maximum that one parent must pay for a child under 6 years old is UAH 25,630. And for children from 6 to 18 years old - UAH 31,960.
