Meteorite law in Ukraine

No meteorite-specific law that we can confirm. Export of cultural and natural-history valuables needs permission.

No specific law known

We know of no Ukrainian law written for meteorites, so ownership follows ordinary property law. Exporting objects of cultural or scientific value needs official permission, and buyers should be wary of specimens offered without papers.

Not legal advice

This is general information to help you ask the right questions, not legal advice. Laws change and their details matter, and this summary was last reviewed in 2026. Before you search, buy, sell or export a meteorite, check the current law with the authorities of the country concerned or a qualified lawyer. See meteorite law by country.
