The same provision has been added to three laws: the Law on Privatization of State Property, the Law on Guarantees of Freedom of Entrepreneurial Activity, and the Law on Protection of Private Property and Guarantees of Owners’ Rights.
Under the new provision, attempts by state bodies, including regulatory and law enforcement agencies, as well as courts, to initiate a review of privatization results will be deemed a violation of the inviolability of private property. This includes attempts to reassess the value of privatized assets or verify the accuracy of valuation reports. Cases seeking such reviews will not be accepted for consideration.
The provision is intended to protect the finality of privatization deals and provide stronger legal guarantees to private owners who acquired assets through privatization.
A similar restriction was previously established by Presidential Decree No. 4633 of January 17, 2017, which prohibited raising the issue of reviewing privatization results.
The source text states that the law was signed on August 17 and that it takes effect three months after official publication, from July 18, 2026. These dates are inconsistent, as July 18 precedes August 17. The effective date should therefore be verified against the official text of the law before publication.
