Summary/Abstract: The article is dedicated to examining an issue of the welfare conditionality of establishing the criminal liability for the unpromised concealment of an offence. The author has indicated socio-psychological, criminological, and normative factors of the welfare conditionality. This has enables to make a conclusion about the expediency of criminal liability for the unpromised concealment of an offence because its social danger manifests itself in counteracting the quick, full, and comprehensive pre-trial investigation, the timely detection and criminal prosecution of persons convicted of offences. The aforementioned factors foster the decrease of legal protection of citizens, the appearance of the sense of impunity, and impede the timely compensation of a property damage and moral injury inflicted by an offence.
