Ukrainians can now apply through Diia for state assistance related to pregnancy and childbirth<\/strong>, as well as monthly childcare payments until a child turns one. Depending on the type of assistance and the family\u2019s circumstances, the amount ranges from 7,000 to 10,500 hryvnias per month<\/strong>. The online services were launched on October 20, <\/strong>2026, according to announcements on the Government Portal and in Diia.<\/p>\n

Pregnancy and childbirth assistance amounts to 7,000 hryvnias per month<\/strong>. It is available to women who are not covered<\/strong> by the compulsory state social insurance system. A medical certificate<\/strong> in the \u201cPregnancy and Childbirth\u201d category is required<\/strong> to apply. The money is paid into a regular Diia.Card account and can be used without restrictions<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The childcare payment until a child turns one is also 7,000 hryvnias per month<\/strong>. For families raising a child with a disability, the amount increases to 10,500 hryvnias per month<\/strong>. These funds are paid into a special \u201cChild Care\u201d account and are intended to cover children\u2019s needs, including food, clothing, and care<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

To apply online<\/strong>, sign in to the Diia portal, fill out the form, and sign it electronically. To receive the childcare payment, you need a special<\/strong> \u201cChild Care\u201d account in Diia.Card. After you submit the application, the system verifies the data against state registers, and an employee of the Pension Fund of Ukraine<\/strong> reviews and approves<\/strong> the decision.<\/p>\n

You can also apply in person at Pension Fund service centers, administrative service centers, or through authorized representatives of local communities<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The services were previously beta-tested with around 400 women<\/strong>. Following the successful test, applications for the payments became available to a wider range of users.<\/p>\n
