# Returning and restoring property rights

**Returning and restoring property rights.**

Ukrainian citizens who have returned from abroad can restore documents and formalise their property rights if these were lost, damaged or not properly registered.

**What you need to do:**

1. **Check ownership of real estate** - obtain information from the State Register of Rights to Immovable Property.
2. **Register or restore ownership** - contact a state registrar or notary if information about the property is missing from the register.
3. **Restore documents establishing ownership** - if documents have been lost, contact the notary, the authority that issued them or the state archive, depending on the type of document.
4. **Record damage to or destruction of housing** - submit an information notice through Diia or an Administrative Services Centre.
5. **Apply for compensation under the eRecovery programme** - where the grounds provided for by law exist.

**Important:** returning from abroad does not deprive citizens of ownership of their property. If housing has been damaged or destroyed as a result of hostilities, the owner may apply for state compensation in accordance with the established conditions.
