Buying a Business in Ukraine: A Guide for Foreign Investors
Ukraine is becoming increasingly attractive to foreign investors who seek to acquire businesses or develop their enterprises in this dynamic and potentially profitable country. As a business lawyer of the INSEININ Law Firm, I have prepared a detailed guide for those planning to invest in our country. Our company can help you select an investment target, check the legal aspects of the business, and provide full legal support for the transaction.
Investment in Ukraine is the allocation of capital by foreign or domestic investors into the development of the country’s economy. This includes acquiring assets, businesses, land plots, real estate, or other resources with the aim of generating profit, fostering entrepreneurship, and supporting innovation. Investment activities in Ukraine are governed by legislation that ensures the protection of investors' rights and promotes transparent business conditions.
Advantages of Investing in Ukraine
- Strategic Location Ukraine is located at the crossroads of major trade routes between Eastern Europe and Asia, reducing logistics costs to Europe and the East.
- Abundance of Resources High-quality agricultural land, numerous quarries, forestry, and low production costs due to affordable labor and a wide range of resources make investment conditions attractive. These factors enable the production of various goods for export and the domestic market.
- Government Reforms and Investor Support Breakthrough reforms are currently creating conditions for transparent and stable market development, with tax zones offering 0% to 9% profit tax and 5% tax on hired employees. These reforms aim to eliminate corruption risks and external interference.
