Abstract. This paper investigates issues related to modern features of determining the status of immovable cultural heritage sites as well as the accompanying practical aspects.

The paper emphasizes that listing the object of cultural heritage in the State Register of Immovable Monuments of Ukraine by the category of national or local significance shows the object’s special status and should guarantee that the state, represented by the bodies of authority, will take the necessary measures for its protection and preservation.

It is stated and grounded that the currently existing format of the State Register is outdated; it was formed without having considered the available positive practical experience, new challenges of modern life and achievements of the technological progress. Thereby, it is necessary to change certain provisions of the current Law of Ukraine “On protection of cultural heritage”, in particular, regarding the formation of the basic terminology of the monument protection sphere and the procedure for publishing information on state registration of cultural heritage sites.

In order to form and store the data of the State Register of Immovable Monuments of Ukraine, it is necessary to use modern software adapted for the specific needs, and not just use the option of archiving available text documents.

Keywords: State Register of Immovable Monuments of Ukraine, immovable cultural heritage, object of cultural heritage, monument of national importance, monument of local significance, protection of monuments.
