Constitution

The constitution of Ukraine was adopted on 28 June 1996, and provides for the freedom of religion and conscience. Although there is no official state religion, reports claim that local authorities often favor the religious majority in a particular region. All religious groups are required by law to register as either a local or national organization with the State Committee on Nationalities and Religions (SCNR), which was established in 2006. The activities of foreign-based religious organizations, however, are limited according to Ukrainian laws.
