The order of the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine dated May 17, 2023 No. 256 “On Approval of Amendments to Certain Regulations of the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine” was published
According to the order of the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine dated May 17, 2023, No. 256 (published on July 31, 2023), changes were made to the form of the VAT Invoice and the VAT Declaration. The main changes relate to enterprises engaged in the export of goods with the UKT ZED (Ukrainian Classifier of Goods of External Economic Activity) codes to which the export security regime is applied (namely, agricultural products such as grain, oil, seeds, etc.).

According to a 2022 report by OpenDataBot and Netpeak, 44 russian software products – including Bitrix24, Moy Sklad, and Mindbox – remained in demand on the Ukrainian market. Among these, the 1C and BAS accounting systems were leading the way. BAS, in fact, is a rebranded version of 1C – a move by russian developers designed to bypass sanctions and maintain t...
