The American Chamber of Commerce in Ukraine welcomes the decision of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Energy, Housing and Utilities, which on November 5, 2025, supported Draft Law #14089 “On Amendments to Section XXI “Final and Transitional Provisions” of the Customs Code of Ukraine to Promote the Restoration of Ukraine’s Energy Infrastructure” and Draft Law #14090 “On Amendments to Subsection 2 of Section XX “Transitional Provisions” of the Tax Code of Ukraine to Promote the Restoration of Ukraine’s Energy Infrastructure” (both registered on September 30, 2025) and recommended the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Finance, Tax and Customs Policy to submit them for consideration of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine for inclusion in the plenary session agenda and further adoption as a basis and as Laws as a whole.
The Draft Laws aim to introduce customs and tax incentives to facilitate the restoration of Ukraine’s energy infrastructure.
AmCham Ukraine member companies previously submitted their proposals and position papers in support of development of such legislative initiative and Draft Laws #14089 and #14090, emphasizing the importance of facilitating the import of energy generation and storage equipment to accelerate the recovery and modernization of Ukraine’s energy sector. The initiatives propose to extend the period of exemption from import duty and VAT for energy equipment until January 1, 2027, as well as expand the list of equipment eligible for customs benefits. These legislative changes will facilitate the import of energy generation and storage equipment, including wind power installations and equipment for providing ancillary services, thereby accelerating the recovery and modernization of Ukraine’s energy sector.
AmCham Ukraine member companies’ experts welcome these legislative initiatives and call on the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine to include Draft Laws #14089 and #14090 in the Parliamentary agenda and adopt them as soon as possible. This will contribute to strengthening Ukraine’s energy resilience and promoting investment in renewable and auxiliary energy infrastructure.
