Implementing status
Progress/Result of implementation:
According to the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine: "On 12 September 2023, the Government adopted Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine No. 976 "Some issues of automatic verification (verification) of information by means of the Unified State Web Portal of Electronic Services using information from the Unified State Demographic Register, the State Register of Individuals - Taxpayers". The Resolution approved the Procedure for Automatic Verification of Information by the Unified State Web Portal of Electronic Services Using Information from the Unified State Demographic Register and the State Register of Individual Taxpayers.
At the same time, it is worth noting that part five of Article 6 of the Law of Ukraine "On State Registration of Legal Entities, Individual Entrepreneurs and Public Organisations" provides for automatic verification of information about the person who is the ultimate beneficial owner of a legal entity by means of the Unified State Web Portal of Electronic Services during registration actions in respect of any legal entity and in case such a legal entity submits information about the person who is the ultimate beneficial owner of the legal entity in the electronic form. In turn, Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine No. 976 of 12 September 2023 stipulates that automatic verification of information about the person who is the ultimate beneficial owner of a legal entity by means of the Unified State Web Portal of Electronic Services is carried out during the state registration of the formation of a limited liability company operating on the basis of a model charter of a limited liability company. At the same time, the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine No. 976 dated 12 September 2023 stipulates that such automatic verification during the state registration of the formation of a legal entity (except for a limited liability company operating on the basis of a model charter of a limited liability company) and amendments to the information about the legal entity contained in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, Individual Entrepreneurs and Public Organisations will be carried out after ensuring the technical feasibility of such state registration.
In view of this, we believe that the measure has been partially implemented.
