LLC (TOV) registration in Ukraine
We prepare the charter, the founders' decision and the ownership structure, book a notary in Kyiv or register through Diia, and choose the activity codes (KVED) and the tax system. LLC registration costs from UAH 6,000. After it our bookkeeper can run the company's accounting from the first day, as part of our accounting services in Ukraine.

What LLC registration includes
Structure and charter
We agree on the shares, share capital, director and name. We use the model charter or prepare our standard one if the partners need their own rules.
KVED and taxes
We choose the activity codes and the tax system and prepare the VAT application if you need VAT. We file the single tax application when we keep your books, otherwise we give your accountant the deadline.
Notary or Diia
We book the founders with a notary in Kyiv and agree the documents with them. If all founders are Ukrainian citizens with KEP and the model charter fits, we register through Diia.
Documents and checks
We hand over the registry extract, charter, decision and ownership chart, then check the single tax and VAT registers so the status is the one we agreed on.
What we need from you and how long it takes
- company name in Ukrainian and, if you like, in English;
- company address in Ukraine;
- the founders' shares and the amount of share capital;
- passports and Ukrainian tax numbers (RNOKPP) of the founders and the director;
- the ultimate beneficial owners, if a founder is a company.
Registration through Diia takes 1-3 business days, but only when all founders are Ukrainian citizens with KEP or Diia.Signature and the model charter fits. Through a notary in Kyiv it takes from 5 business days. With a foreign parent company, plan 2-4 weeks from the day the apostilled documents from abroad are ready.

How we register an LLC
Registering an LLC with a foreign founder
A foreign individual or company can found a Ukrainian LLC without travelling to Ukraine. You need a Ukrainian tax number (RNOKPP), a notarized power of attorney signed abroad with an apostille or consular legalization (documents from Poland, the Czech Republic and a few other countries are exempt under treaties), and certified Ukrainian translations of all documents. A corporate founder also needs a registry extract not older than one month and an ownership chart up to the ultimate beneficial owners. A foreigner can be appointed director only with a work permit or under an exemption set by law, otherwise the fine in 2026 is UAH 172,940. If your company only needs a presence in Ukraine without a new legal entity, see registration of a representative office.
Register an LLC yourself through Diia or with us
Diia lets you register an LLC without a notary if all founders are Ukrainian citizens with KEP or Diia.Signature and the model charter suits you. The step-by-step guide is in how to register an LLC online via Diia. A notary and our help are needed when the founders include foreigners or companies, the partners want their own charter or someone signs under a power of attorney. Options chosen in the model charter can later be changed only through a notary or a TsNAP, so it pays to think them through before filing.
We have almost 20 years of experience and know how to register an LLC for various business sectors.
IT
Beauty industry
Healthcare
Trade and services
Non-profit and charitable organizations
Real estate
Theater and concert activities
Manufacturing
There is no state fee for registering an LLC. Our work costs from UAH 6,000, and the notary is paid separately. Registration outside Kyiv, with foreign founders or with a custom charter costs more, and we confirm the exact amount before work starts.
A company name, an address, the founders' shares and share capital, passports and tax numbers of the founders and the director, and the ultimate beneficial owners. We choose the activity codes and the tax system with you. For Diia every founder also needs KEP or Diia.Signature, because all of them sign.
The state registrar enters an LLC into the register within 24 hours of filing, weekends excluded. Through Diia the whole process takes 1-3 business days, through a Kyiv notary from 5 business days. With a foreign parent company, plan 2-4 weeks from the day the apostilled documents are ready.
Yes. A foreign individual or company can own 100% of a Ukrainian LLC and does not have to travel for the registration. You need a Ukrainian tax number, a notarized power of attorney with an apostille and certified translations, and a company founder also needs a fresh registry extract and an ownership chart.
The model charter is faster and allows registration through Diia without a notary. But its options, such as how often dividends are paid, can later be changed only through a notary or a TsNAP, and you cannot add your own clauses. If the partners have special arrangements, a custom charter or a shareholders' agreement fits better.
Check the single tax and VAT status, appoint the director, open a bank account and get KEP. File form 20-OPP within 10 business days after you get an office, and pay in the share capital within 6 months unless the charter sets another term. Our bookkeeper handles this as part of accounting for LLCs in Ukraine.
Only if legal entities that do not pay the single tax together hold less than 25% of the LLC. A foreign parent company cannot pay the Ukrainian single tax, so an LLC that is 25% or more owned by one usually works on the general tax system. We work out the tax system before registration.
