Thanks to the development of digital services, it is possible to officially become a private entrepreneur in Ukraine in one day.
Thanks to digitalization, it is now possible to register individual companies online via Diya service. The main thing is to confirm the registration with an electronic digital signature. writes about it Focus “Time to compromise. Do I need to register a sole proprietorship for active online sales?”
“You can register for your personal account using electronic digital signature (EDS). In some banks, an account can be created remotely, for example, PrivatBank. If all the information is specified correctly, after a while you may receive a response message about the FOP registration. An extract from the Unified State Register (USR) will be available in your personal account. To register with TsNAP, you must complete an application for registration of a freelancer and make an appointment with TsNAP or a government registrar.

Remote reporting is also available for entrepreneurs through the Diya service. According to Yuriy Tishkovsky, consultant to Stron Legal Services, the process of filing tax reports for sole proprietors – sole taxpayers – is fairly straightforward.
“Tax legislation provides for the possibility of submitting a report in both paper and electronic form. If we talk about electronic submission, this can be done through the taxpayer’s electronic account on the tax website or through “Diya”.“, – said Tishkovsky.
However, there is always a risk that reports will not be submitted on time during power outages. But experts say fines can be avoided if an entrepreneur submits data after a deadline. “Today, the Transitional Provisions of the Tax Code of Ukraine are in force to exempt business entities from the obligation for late performance of tax obligations, including late submission of reports. Therefore, criminal liability for late submission of the report should not be applied or, if applied, it can be appealed. Recall that the reporting deadline is 40-60 days from the end date of the tax period, so reports need to be submitted ahead of time, not on the last day.“, – explained Alexandra Tomashevskaya, tax consultant of the Kyiv Business Support and Development Center.
As Ivan Marynyuk, a lawyer at the law firm Ilyashev & Partners, points out, an entrepreneur must introduce the “trust” rule to minimize the risk of fines for non-submission of reports and the time spent appealing it. the last day of the report.”
If it is not possible to present it electronically, it can be done on paper. If the tax imposed a fine, you can try to appeal. To do this, it will be necessary to collect evidence proving the impossibility of reporting due to malfunctions in the operation of STS electronic services. Relevant information can be published on the official page of the State Tax Service of Ukraine.
