The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has amended the relevant resolutions on the creation and maintenance of registers, implementation of customs control and official control measures, developed by the Ministry of Finance.
The decision ensures the updating of open customs data, as well as contributes to the implementation of effective control over the movement of goods across the customs border of Ukraine. The goal is to make customs more transparent and convenient for business.
Key changes:
- the mechanism for creating and maintaining a register of central and regional sorting stations has been approved;
- the list of open data sets managed by the State Customs Service has been updated;
- the procedure for publishing depersonalized analytical and statistical information in the field of customs has been updated;
- the procedures for photo and video recording during customs control have been clarified;
- the list of goods subject to official control when imported into the customs territory of Ukraine has been updated.
The changes are aimed at implementing the norms of the Customs Code of Ukraine, as well as updating and harmonizing Government decisions in the field of open data, organization of customs procedures, and official control measures.
The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has amended Resolution No. 410 “On Contracts for Medical Care for the Population under the Medical Guarantees Program.” This was announced by the government representative in parliament, Taras Melnychuk.
The changes are aimed at improving the mechanism for confirming the availability of medical service locations.
From now on, healthcare institutions will independently confirm the compliance of their premises with accessibility requirements for persons with disabilities and other low-mobility population groups, in particular in terms of providing interpretation into Ukrainian sign language in accordance with current legislation.
In addition, it is possible to determine the order of submission of proposals for different categories of medical service providers. Announcements on the selection of providers under the medical guarantees program may determine the order of submission of proposals between business entities that are part of a capable network of healthcare institutions, defined by Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine No. 174 of February 28, 2023, and other entities.
The changes also provide greater legal certainty in the field of contractual relations: duplication of functions between participants in the contract conclusion process has been eliminated, the areas of responsibility of each party have been clarified, and a transparent, balanced mechanism of interaction between the National Health Service of Ukraine and medical service providers has been created.
The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has adopted a resolution developed by the Ministry of Social Policy, Family and Unity of Ukraine, which increases monthly supplements for disabled family members of the Heroes of the Heavenly Hundred.
From December 1, 2025, the monthly pension supplement in case of loss of a breadwinner will be UAH 12,971. If there are two or more disabled members in a family, this amount will be divided equally between them. Currently, these payments are UAH 5,000, UAH 6,500 or UAH 8,000, depending on the number of dependents - and were established back in 2014.
Now payments will be accrued not only to the pension in case of loss of the breadwinner, but also to the old-age or disability pension, if it is assigned under the Law of Ukraine "On Compulsory State Pension Insurance."
The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine supported the resolution "Some Features of Determining the Cost of Construction under Martial Law", developed by the Ministry of Community and Territorial Development of Ukraine.
The resolution establishes uniform, transparent and predictable rules for the formation of the cost of construction works for projects financed by public funds. In particular, the document ensures a balance between the interests of the state and contractors: it offers fair conditions for business and establishes a transparent mechanism for monitoring prices for construction materials and the use of funds.
The resolution provides:
1) unified approach to determining general and administrative expenses, as well as profit. Clear percentage guidelines are established: 10% for general production costs, 3% for administrative costs and 15% profit on direct costs. This makes the calculation of construction costs clear, fair and transparent for all market participants;
2) updated approach to calculating wages. The wages of construction workers must not be lower than the minimum industry guarantees specified in the joint agreement between the Ministry of Development and the trade union. And in difficult or dangerous conditions, in particular in areas of active or possible hostilities, the level of wages may be further increased;
3) creation of a Base of Prices for Building Materials, which will be included in the Unified State Electronic System in the Construction Sector (USESCS). It will collect data on market prices for materials from various sources, including: Prozorro, customs and tax statistics, and manufacturers' price lists. This will allow comparing estimated prices with market prices and preventing their overestimation;
4) introduction of the Construction Products Codifier. It will become a single digital reference that will streamline the names and characteristics of materials. This will allow all market participants to "speak the same language" and will become the basis for the Base of Prices for Construction Materials.
The document was developed by a Working Group under the Ministry of Development, which included representatives of the construction business, specialized associations, international organizations and anti-corruption initiatives, as well as the State Audit Service, the Accounting Chamber and the Antimonopoly Committee of Ukraine. This format ensured open discussion and allowed for the coordination of decisions that take into account the interests of the market, the state and international partners.
This solution will bring the pricing system closer to real market conditions, make the calculation of construction costs open and protected from manipulation, and also guarantee decent wages and efficient use of funds during reconstruction.
The new rules will be in effect during martial law and for a year after its end.
The Ministry of Finance of Ukraine has published the draft Law of Ukraine “On Amendments to the Tax Code of Ukraine to Improve the Procedure for Mutual Agreement and the Procedure for Preliminary Agreement on Pricing in Controlled Transactions” (hereinafter - the draft act).
The draft law was developed by the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine with the aim of improving the legal mechanism of the mutual agreement procedure and the procedure for prior agreement on pricing in controlled transactions, which will contribute to the implementation of international obligations undertaken by Ukraine after joining the Enhanced Cooperation Program within the framework of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (hereinafter - the OECD) in January 2017.
The amendments proposed in the draft act are aimed at implementing the standards of Step 14 of the BEPS Action Plan (Base Erosion and Profit Shifting), set out in the OECD Final Report "BEPS 14 Action of Making Dispute Resolution Mechanisms More Effective", updated in 2022, and the recommendations of the OECD Transfer Pricing Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises and Tax Administrations, revised in 2022.
The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has adopted a resolution establishing new and clear rules for lottery operators, developed by the Ministry of Digital Economy .
The new rules provide for:
- open competitions for obtaining licenses;
- annual license fees - over 67 million UAH from three operators;
- electronic accounting system that will allow the state to track sales and payouts of winnings in real time;
- unique QR codes for each ticket and terminal to provide protection against counterfeiting and confirm the legality of the equipment.
This decision brings the lottery market back into the legal field and creates the prerequisites for real control over its work. The next step is to update the Law "On State Lotteries". It needs serious improvement to end the monopoly, close regulatory gaps, and open the market to international companies and investments.
The Ministry of Finance of Ukraine, by Order No. 529 of October 16, 2025, approved the Methodology for verifying compensation for actual costs for arranging workplaces, places of economic or independent professional activity for persons with disabilities.
It defines a single mechanism for verifying the data on the basis of which an enterprise or entrepreneur is compensated for the costs of arranging a workplace for a person with a disability. The compensation process itself is regulated by Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers No. 893 (No. 273 as amended on February 21, 2025).
Verification is carried out by the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine by automatically comparing data from the application for compensation with information from state registers and databases.
The State Employment Center transfers the data of the applicant and the employed person with a disability to the Ministry of Finance.
The Ministry of Finance receives and verifies data from a number of state registers, including:
- Unified State Demographic Register - unique record number;
- State Register of Civil Status Acts - change of name, marriage, divorce, death;
- State Tax Service information systems:
- reliability of the TIN / passport data;
- availability of income;
- status of independent professional activity;
- tax debt and debt to the Social Security Administration;
- Unified State Register of Legal Entities — registration of legal entities and sole proprietors, bankruptcy, termination of activities;
- Register of insured persons of the PFU - the fact of employment and the date of commencement of work;
- Unified information system of the social sphere - disability group, date of establishment;
- State Register of Sanctions - checking the applicant for sanctions;
- PFU information systems - the presence of arrears in payment of contributions.
Verification takes place in three stages: validation (checking the compliance of data with the conditions of information interaction between the Ministry of Finance and other bodies), checking the reliability of data (comparing the personal and registration information of the applicant and the employed person with registers) and checking the legality of compensation (comparing the information of the State Employment Center with data from other bodies regarding each employed employee with disabilities and the applicant himself).
The methodology ensures transparency, prevention of abuse, and reliability of compensation for employers who create jobs for people with disabilities.
This is an important step in systematizing state support for inclusive employment.
The Ministry of Finance of Ukraine, by Order No. 527 of October 15, 2025 (taking into account the changes made by Order No. 559 of November 7, 2025), approved updates to two important documents:
- Procedure for accounting of single contribution payers (SCP), approved by Order of the Ministry of Finance No. 1162 of November 24, 2014;
- Regulations on the register of insured persons, also approved by Order of the Ministry of Finance No. 1162 of November 24, 2014.
Major changes
Accounting for separate units in temporarily occupied territories
From now on, separate divisions of legal entities located in temporarily occupied territories:
- the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol (since February 20, 2014),
- parts of Donetsk and Luhansk regions (since April 7, 2014),
— are registered with the regulatory authority at the main place of registration of the legal entity of which they are a part.
In the event of a legal entity being transferred for service to another regulatory authority, the place of registration of all its such divisions automatically changes.
Data transfer to the Unified State Register
On the day a legal entity, its separate division, or individual entrepreneur is registered as a payer of the Unified State Register, the regulatory authorities transmit to the Unified State Register information about:
- date of registration,
- name and EDRPOU code of the controlling authority,
- registration number of the SSC payer.
New rules for deregistration
The date of deregistration can be determined by:
- the date of loss of the status of a SSC payer (according to a court decision or a regulatory body);
- the date from which the person should have been removed from the register by decision of a court or regulatory authority.
Orders No. 527 and No. 559 shall enter into force on the date of official publication.
