On July 1, 2021, the land market was officially launched in Ukraine. Until 2024, only private persons and citizens of Ukraine will be able to buy agricultural land with a limit of 100 hectares. The new land market law still prohibits foreigners from buying land. The issue of selling land to stateless persons and foreigners will be decided on a national referendum.
