This became possible thanks to the deregulation bill No. 7331, which was generally supported by the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine yesterday.
Previously, BRDO, together with the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine and the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine, developed a package of regulatory and legal acts, in particular, Government Resolution No. 314 regarding the conduct of economic activities under martial law, as well as amendments thereto.
This made it possible to carry out economic activities based on the free submission of a declaration, without the need to obtain permits, licenses, other public services (except for high-risk activities, the list of which is defined in the Appendix to Government Resolution No. 314).
Also in 2022, a digital service for submitting declarations was launched ▶️ https://diia.gov.ua/services/yedeklaraciya.
They are most popular among entrepreneurs in the fields of educational activities, labor protection, ecology, etc.
At the same time, draft law No. 7331 was developed on the basis of the provisions of the Resolution. The document regulates the legal certainty of the status of the declaration and other permit documents, licenses, and the results of the provision of public services at the legislative level during the period of martial law.
What provisions does the bill No. 7331 contain?
- The declaration status is equivalent to a permit or a license.
- Declarations can be submitted from anywhere in the country.
- The declaration is valid until the end of the year after the termination of martial law, but not less than three months from the day of its termination.
- Previously obtained permits and licenses are automatically extended until the end of the year after the end of martial law.
- No need to redo documents or make changes during martial law.
- Reports and documents are submitted by the end of the year after the end of martial law.
- Documents required by law, such as applications for the extension of permits, relevant reports and other documents, will be required after the end of martial law.
