Cassation
Civil case cassation complaint deadline calculator
Enter the date from which the cassation period runs in your case: pronouncement, preparation of the full text, or receipt of the decision. The calculator gives a calendar estimate for cases in Kyiv and Kyiv region but does not decide whether cassation is admissible.

For a situation where the period runs from the pronouncement or preparation of the full text of the court decision.
Use the date shown in the decision, order, electronic cabinet, postal notice, or case file.

What the calculator takes into account
The Civil Procedure Code of Ukraine sets a general 30-day period for a cassation appeal against a court decision. The period for a ruling is also calculated under Article 390, but the start date may depend on whether the party was present and when they received the full text.
The calculation shows only the calendar deadline. Before filing, separately check the grounds for cassation, the claim value, the type of dispute, the court fee, and evidence of the date the decision was received.
Calculation methodology
Methodology for determining the cassation deadline
- The user selects the scenario and date from which the deadline is calculated in their case.
- The calculator starts counting on the calendar day after this date.
- Add 30 calendar days to the start date.
- If the final day falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the result moves to Monday.
Calculation example
The full text of the appellate court ruling in the Kyiv case was received on June 12, 2026.
- Scenario: from service of the full text
- Sent date: 12.06.2026
- Period: 30 calendar days
Estimated last day to file a cassation appeal: July 13, 2026, if the weekend extension applies.

Frequently asked questions
From what date should the 30 days be counted?
This depends on when the decision was pronounced, when the full text was prepared, and when the party received a copy. Confirm the date from the case file, postal records, or e-cabinet.
Can a cassation appeal always be filed after an appeal?
No. Cassation appeals are subject to procedural filters and depend on the case category, amount in dispute, and grounds relied on by the applicant.
What to do if the time limit has already expired?
Need to assess whether there are valid reasons for missing the deadline and proof of the date the full text was received. A motion to renew the deadline does not guarantee that cassation proceedings will be opened.
Does the calculator account for public holidays?
No. The tool moves only Saturday and Sunday. Official holidays and special non-working days must be checked separately before filing.
