ELECTRONIC SYSTEM TO SUBMIT DOCUMENTS FOR CONSTRUCTION LICENSES TO BE INTRODUCED IN UKRAINE

2 June , 2015  

KYIV. June 2 (Interfax-Ukraine) – There is a plan to introduce a system to submit applications and documents of companies that want to receive construction licenses in an electronic format on the website of the Electronic Administrative Services of the State Architectural and Construction Inspectorate of Ukraine.
The inspectorate reported on Friday that the draft cabinet resolution was drawn up by itself as the law on licensing types of economic activities will take effect from June 28, 2015, and the draft document has been agreed with the Economic Development and Trade Ministry, Finance Ministry and the State Regulatory Service of Ukraine.
“According to the bill, the construction license will be issued by the licensing agency in the electronic form via an entry on the decision of the licensing agency on the issue of the license to companies in the state register of companies and individuals-businessmen,” reads the report.
The inspectorate believes that the electronic form of submitting documents will reduce errors, which would reduce the number of construction licenses which are refused.
