A political party is an association of citizens who are supporters of a certain national program of social development and aim to participate in public policy, form governmental, local and regional self-government bodies and represent the interests of citizens in their composition.

The decision to establish a political party is made at a party congress (meeting). The congress approves the party's charter and program, elects its leaders and control and audit bodies.

A political party is a non-profit organization, has the right to immovable and movable property, financial support and is subject to registration in the Register of Non-Profit Organizations and Institutions.

A political party must be registered with the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine. Unregistered political parties are not allowed to operate. State registration of district, local and regional organizations is carried out after the registration of the political party itself with the Ministry of Justice.
