In the near future, foreigners will be able to obtain e-resident status and open their business in Ukraine online, without a physical presence in the country.
This opportunity will appear thanks to the adoption by the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine of draft law No. 5270 on e-residency. 252 deputies of the Verkhovna Rada voted for this draft law.
The Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine explained how to become an e-resident:
- submit an online application for e-residency status;
- pass an inspection in accordance with current legislation;
- undergo identification at the consular institution, obtain the registration number of the taxpayer's account card and an electronic signature;
- open a bank account and register as an individual entrepreneur.
The team of the Ministry of Digital Transformation is currently developing a web version and a mobile application of a digital signature for e-residents.
