The European Business Association and BDO in Ukraine have prepared an updated practical guide for companies whose property was damaged by armed aggression. The document is designed as a step-by-step plan for businesses that need to document losses and restore operations.
The topic is especially important for small and medium-sized companies. When a facility is damaged, the first days often determine whether a business can later prove losses, seek compensation, protect staff and restart work.
From damage fixation to continuity
The guide covers evidence collection, interaction with law enforcement, court protection, damage assessment, tax and accounting treatment of destroyed assets, labor issues, state support programs and war-risk insurance instruments.
It also highlights business continuity. Companies need to think not only about repairs, but also about data, cloud recovery, relocation, supply chains and communication with employees and clients.
For Ukraine’s economy, such practical algorithms matter because thousands of businesses face disruptions that are not just physical. A damaged warehouse or office can trigger legal, tax, financial and labor consequences. Clear procedures help transform crisis response into a recoverable process.
