The government launched the ePermit system: new opportunities for business

Now entrepreneurs will be able to receive licenses and permits in electronic form. The Government adopted the decision to launch an experimental project on the introduction of the Unified State Electronic System of Permit Documents (ePermit) on July 5, 2024.

How will it work?

  1. Applications and documents submitted in ePermit will be automatically checked by means of the electronic system according to a special algorithm.
  2. Based on the results of the check, the system will determine the level of risk and choose the type of electronic document registration procedure. If the risk is determined to be low, registration occurs automatically.
  3. Otherwise, representatives of the relevant state bodies are involved in the verification of the submitted information. They must make a decision on issuing a license within 10 days.
  4. ePermit will interact with electronic information and communication systems of state bodies, and ordering services will be done through the Unified State Web Portal of Electronic Services. Therefore, the business will not be required to provide the documents contained in these systems.

The development and launch of the ePermit system is carried out by the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine in partnership with the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine and is financed by component 2 of the international technical assistance project EU4DigitalUA, implemented by FIIAPP and financed by the EU. Advisory support for the development of regulations for the system is provided by the EU4Business: SME Policies and Institutions Support (SMEPIS) project implemented by Ecorys in a consortium with GIZ, BRDO and Civitta with the financial support of the European Union.
