Entering the Ukrainian market unlocks substantial opportunities for international businesses: from the preferential Diia.City tax framework and launching R&D hubs to participating in large-scale investment projects. However, integrating foreign capital into Ukraine’s regulatory environment demands uncompromising financial compliance. National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) currency regulations, transfer pricing rules, non-resident corporate profit tax nuances, and ongoing legislative updates make robust corporate bookkeeping essential to safeguarding your enterprise.
BuhalteriO provides end-to-end accounting, tax advisory, and payroll outsourcing for representative offices, subsidiaries, and foreign investors in Ukraine. We serve as your local finance department: configuring records under Ukrainian National Accounting Standards (NAS) and IFRS, managing banking compliance, handling dialogue with fiscal authorities, and shielding your corporate assets from regulatory exposure. All workflows are aligned with international corporate governance standards and delivered through a streamlined digital framework.

What We Do for Foreigners and Businesses in Ukraine 2026
Today, Ukraine is becoming an entry point for many foreign entrepreneurs. We see a flow of clients from Israel who are involved in software development and are building developer teams in Ukraine. For such clients, BuhalteriO helps register a company, obtain a temporary or permanent residence permit, set up tax status, prepare documents for the bank, and manage currency transactions.
The restaurant business is of no less interest. During the war in Ukraine, the demand for food delivery and fast-food services has grown significantly. Foreign investors see potential in this and are ready to invest in creating new formats. We assist such companies with legal registration, obtaining necessary permits, and structuring the tax system for their business.
We are often approached by entrepreneurs from Germany and other EU countries who are engaged in importing equipment, microchips, and innovative products, including in the fields of biotechnology and biohacking. For such companies, it is important to have a transparent import scheme, clear accounting, and full compliance with Ukrainian and international legislation.
The special legal regime “Diia.City” is also gaining popularity among foreigners. It is ideal for companies that want to operate transparently, officially hire employees, and pay taxes according to clear rules. For foreign IT companies, this is an understandable model that replaces the common Ukrainian practice of registering employees as FOPs. We help register businesses within “Diia.City,” set up contracts, and structure the tax system.
At BuhalteriO, we don’t just process documents—we help foreign investors and non-resident companies integrate into the Ukrainian business market and set up work processes so that every stage complies with the law and generates profit.
