Requirement for Diia City residents simplified during martial law

The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine decided to simplify the requirements and responsibilities that Diia City resident companies have. The changes will be effective at least during the period of martial law in Ukraine.

The changes are as follows:

–       Normally the minimum monthly remuneration requirement for employees and gig specialists in Diia City is the equivalent of EUR 1200 – complying with this requirement is not necessary.

–       Normally a Diia City resident should have at least nine employees or gig specialists to qualify as a resident – complying with this requirement is not necessary.

–       It is also not necessary to comply with the requirement regarding the amount of income from qualified sources, usually IT development activities, which normally is 90 percent.

The changes mean that Diia City residents which do not comply with the abovementioned requirements, will not be deprived of their resident status because of that during the martial law period.

Diia City residents are also exempted from the obligation to submit auditor´s reports of their Diia City mandated reporting. This is effective until January 1st of the calendar year following the year of termination of the martial law in Ukraine.
