Doing Business in a Rebuilding Ukraine: Quick-Glance Playbook 2025

 

 

Why Ukraine, why now?

​

 

• “EU Council green-lit €38 billion in recovery funds, June 2025.”

• “EIB reopened a €1.2 billion guarantee window, mid-June 2025.”

• “Ukraine Recovery Conference hits Rome in July; deals go public.”

Fast-Track Setup (roughly 90 days)

 

• First steps — 1 to 10 business days. UBLS guides e-filing and checks documents. (Bank account can wait until transactions start.)

• Choose region & permits — 3 to 6 weeks. We short-list industrial parks and loop in local counsel. Construction and healthcare need extra permits.

• Operational kick-off — up to 3 months total. We co-write a launch plan: hiring pipeline, supplier vetting, first-sales intros. Timeline flexes by industry and import lead times.

​

 

 

Funding possibilities (no giveaways—just options)

 

• EU Ukraine Facility: grants plus loans (total envelope €38 billion).

• EIB / EBRD resilience financing: tickets up to €300 million for energy and logistics.

• US DFC and other donors: blended capital for solid private projects.

 

UBLS maps the pots, ranks likelihood, then co-writes the paperwork with your team.

Quick-fire FAQs

 

Do I need a Ukrainian partner to own 100 %?

No. Full foreign ownership is legal; a local JV only speeds some permits.

​

 

How fast can I get boots on the ground?

Business visa in about 48 hours under Decree 396-2025; hiring can run in parallel.

​

 

What tax perks exist for manufacturers?

Ten-year corporate-tax holiday plus duty-free equipment if you locate in an approved industrial park.

​

 

Is war-risk insurance expensive?

Premiums have dropped roughly 30 % this year; western oblasts are now rated “medium”.

​

 

Can grants really hit €300 million?

Yes—but only when loans, guarantees and grants are stacked. UBLS shows what’s realistic.

​

 

Who handles supplier due-diligence?

You choose; UBLS provides a red-flag report and short list.

​

 

What if the law changes mid-project?

UBLS monitors, briefs and helps adjust compliance—final decisions stay yours.
