The Cabinet of Ministers has approved the form of the declaration of compliance of the material and technical base of small distillers with the requirements of the law and determined the procedure for its submission and registration.
The relevant Resolution No. 56 of January 19, 2024 was published on the website of the Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food.
According to the document, small distillers will be able to submit a declaration of compliance of the material and technical base with the legal requirements to the territorial bodies of the State Service of Ukraine for Food Safety and Consumer Protection. Instead of the production certificate, they will be able to use the declaration of compliance of the material and technical base registered by the State Service of Ukraine on Food Safety and Consumer Protection to obtain licenses for the production of alcohol distillates and alcoholic beverages, which will greatly simplify this procedure.
It is expected that the adopted innovations will ensure the development of the market for alcohol distillates and alcoholic beverages, stimulate the development and legalization of small businesses, and contribute to the creation of new jobs, particularly in rural areas.
