Investment Registration Services
Ukrainian legislation understands investments as a wide range of objects regardless of the form of their implementation. This may be a contribution in kind to the authorized capital or a bank deposit. Registration of foreign investments is necessary to protect foreign investors by the state from changes in legislation, encroachments by state authorities or expropriation. The investor is guaranteed the return of investments and compensation for losses in cases established by law.
Another reason to register foreign investments is the possibility for the investor to obtain a residence permit if the invested amount exceeds USD 100,000.
Investors may be individuals or legal entities – non-residents, foreign states and international organizations.
