On 5 November, five additional services of the EU-funded e-entrepreneur framework were introduced at the ‘Country of e-Entrepreneurs’ event in Kyiv, Ukraine. These new features simplify business processes for thousands of Ukrainian entrepreneurs, creating a more resilient and efficient environment.
The five new services include:
- Unified tax payment account: Enables entrepreneurs to pay taxes quickly and accurately, avoiding errors and overpayments.
- Digital employee registration: Allows entrepreneurs to register employment contracts remotely, making hiring easier and fully online.
- Fiscal and electronic cash register setup: Simplifies cash register setup, avoiding the need for in-person visits to tax offices.
- Electronic submission of Form 20-OPP: Allows electronic submission of tax registration for business locations without physical visits.
- Bank account opening: Provides entrepreneurs with a direct option to open accounts with two new partner banks.
“By helping to develop the e-Entrepreneur integrated service, through its EU4DigitalUA and DT4UA projects, the European Union is helping Ukraine to make entrepreneurs’ lives easier,” said Rémi Duflot, Deputy Head of the EU Delegation to Ukraine. “It is important, because entrepreneurs are the backbone of the country’s economic recovery. This know-how-solution represents an absolute milestone towards the safety, efficiency and transparency of Ukraine’s business administration.”
Since its initial launch on the Diia platform this July, the e-Entrepreneur service has provided a one-stop-shop for starting and managing a business online, eliminating much of the traditional administrative burden.
“It’s another revolution in public services, allowing business owners to spend time growing their businesses rather than waiting in lines or gathering documents. Now, opening or scaling a business can be done with a single application in just a few minutes, instead of 1.5 months of visiting government offices,” said Mykhailo Fedorov, Vice Prime Minister for Innovations, Development of Education, Science and Technologies — Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine.
The EU has supported the development of an integrated e-entrepreneur service within the EU4DigitalUA and DT4UA projects, implemented by the e-Governance Academy (eGA) with a combined investment of over €584 000.
