Customs accreditation for companies and sole traders in Ukraine
* - required fields
In short. “Customs accreditation” is the registration of a person carrying out operations with goods: customs assigns the company or sole trader a registration number valid across the entire customs territory of Ukraine (Art. 455 of the Customs Code). It is done once, before or at the first import or export. We prepare and file the documents and follow the case until the number is assigned: 800 UAH, usually from 3 working days.

What the accreditation service covers
Data check
We reconcile the details in the Unified State Register — activity codes (KVED), director and authorised persons — so customs records match the register.
Document package
Application, documents confirming authority (order, power of attorney), details of authorised persons. The set is matched to an LLC or a sole trader.
Filing with customs
In person, by post or electronically — via the State Customs Service information system or the “Single Window” portal. Electronic filing requires a qualified electronic signature.
Answers to customs
Customs comments and requests are handled at no extra charge until the registration number is assigned.
Changes to registration
New director, address or name — we update the registration data with customs.
First import
After registration we help with documents for customs clearance and permits.

- Registration is done once, before or at the first operation with goods; not being registered is grounds for refusing to accept a declaration and clear goods.
- Documents can be filed in person, by post, electronically to the customs information system or via the “Single Window for International Trade” portal (Registration Procedure, Ministry of Finance Order No. 242 of 29.04.2021).
