In 2025, families welcoming a new child will continue to receive financial compensation under the «baby package» program.

This compensation is a one-time payment for each live-born child, intended for purchasing essential baby products, including care items, hygiene products, clothing, food, and toys.

The compensation is provided to parents or guardians in a non-cash form, transferred to a special account at a participating bank. A list of these banks can be found on the official website of the State Service for Children of Ukraine.

The amount of compensation is set at three times the subsistence minimum for children under six years old, as established by law at the time of the child's birth. Starting from January 1, 2025, the amount will be 7689 UAH.

Applicants can request the compensation:

  • in person by submitting a paper application;
  • via postal services;
  • electronically through the «eMaljatko» service.

Compensation is granted if the application is submitted within 12 months of the child's birth.

Within a year of the funds being credited to the account, recipients can use the compensation for purchasing baby products from stores that are part of the «baby package» program. A list of these stores is published on the Ministry of Social Policy's website.

Additionally, newborns can receive the natural «baby package», which contains over 50 essential items. In 2025, new popular items such as reusable diapers and warm clothing were added. The package also includes a book titled «From Birth to One Year», developed with the support of UNICEF, providing practical advice for new parents.
