Ukraine’s Regulatory Shake-Ups Small Owners Can’t Ignore
• Crypto & e-commerce tax draft – the Rada’s 200-page bill (April 24) introduces profit-based taxation for virtual-asset transactions and one-year 5 % amnesty on historic gains.
• New EU-style account registry – banks must report every private account and safe-deposit box (CabMin approval, April 18) → finance inspections will speed up by 40 %.
• NBU currency-liberalization window – entrepreneurs can settle old FX debts if they document each hryvnia of new investment; sloppy ledgers = frozen transfers.
• Single-Tax e-invoice mandate – from 1 July 2025, all FOPs in groups 2-3 must submit digital e-checks to the DREAM platform or face automatic fines.
Failing to align with these changes risks audits, blocked bank payments and reputational hits just when the market is booming.
