Do the inheritor of the damaged / destroyed real estate property have the right for compensation?

Thus, the right to compensation for damaged or destroyed property is transferred to the heirs. This right is regulated by Ukrainian law and is inherited along with property or rights to it.

Conditions of inheritance of the right to compensation:

1. Registration of inheritance: The heirs must obtain a certificate of inheritance for the damaged or destroyed property.
2. Documents for compensation: The heirs must confirm the testator's ownership of the property that was damaged or destroyed and file a claim for compensation.
3. Deadline for filing an application: If the testator filed an application for compensation during his or her lifetime, the heirs have the right to continue this process. If no application has been filed, the heirs may file it on their own, observing the statutory deadlines.

Limitations:

• At the moment, the mechanism of compensation to heirs may not be fully implemented. Some details of the exercise of this right may be clarified by additional regulations.
• Applications from heirs are considered in accordance with the procedure established by the current legislation and the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.

The heirs are entitled to compensation only for the property that the testator owned or possessed at the time of death, and provided that it was damaged or destroyed during the war.
