international security and implementation of international agreements. 
The licensing system involving quotas set for imports of goods, which is aimed to apply safeguard 
measures. The safeguard measures, under this syst em, are set forth pursuant to Law of Ukraine 
"On application of special measures to Ukrain e's imports" #332-XIV of 22 December 1998 and

- 9 - 
 
  (Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine # 362 of 18.05.2005 "On establishing of 
the amount of fee for issuance of export (import) licenses"). 
 
When an application for an import license is filed, no proof of payment of the fee is required. A 
document confirming payment of the fee is subm itted at the time of issue of the license. 
 13.  There is no requirement to make a deposit or an advance payment to be issued an import 
license. 
 Conditions of licensing 
14.  A license is issued for a term that does not prevent the subject of foreign economic activities 
from importing, including from importation from di stant places, and is consistent with the terms of 
the foreign economic activity agreement (contract). In practice the license is issued for the term not longer than the rest of the current year. 
 
Licenses for importation of goods, which were not used in the previous year, usually are extended 
for 2 months and remain valid until the 1
st March of the following year, unless otherwise is 
provided by applicable international agreements. This provision is implemented by annual 
resolutions of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine at the time of approval of the lists of goods 
importation of which is subject to licensing in the respective year.  
15.  No penalties are imposed for a failure to use a license or part of a license. 
 16.  Licenses are not transferable between importers. 
 
17.  There are no other conditions attached to the issue of a license.  
Other procedural requirements 
18.  There are no administrative procedures prior to importation other than the licensing procedure 
for import of goods (and if necessary prior receiving of approval of relevant administrative bodies, see section 7d). 
 
19.     Payments for goods that are being imported are made pursuant to terms and conditions of the foreign economic agreement (contract) between  a subject of foreign economic activities of 
Ukraine and a foreign subject of business activity. Payments are carried out through the 
authorized banks (banks which have received the general license from the National Bank to engage in currency transactions) in currency specified in the foreign economic agreement 
(contract). If the amount of foreign currency in the account of an importer in the authorized bank 
is less than needed, then the bank, acting under the instruction of the importer, will purchase currency at the inter-bank currency market of Ukraine.  
A procedure for obtaining a license does not have any connection to the obtaining of foreign 
currency.  
Importer's solvency is not related in any way to an import license. 
 If necessary, foreign currency is purchased at the inter-bank currency market of Ukraine. 
 
Resolution of the Board of the National Bank of Ukraine of 10.08.2005 #281 "On approval of the 
regulatory - legal acts of the National Bank of Ukraine" (as amended) provides a basis for 
purchasing foreign currency at the inter-bank currency market of Ukraine for payments to 
non-residents in connection with trade transactions. 
 Under this Resolution, a purchase of foreign currency for purposes of payments to non-residents in 
connection with trade transactions is carried out on the basis of the following documents: 
 - Application for a purchase of foreign currency; 
- Agreement with a non-resident prepared in a ccordance with requirements of the existing 
legislation of Ukraine; 
- Shipment customs declaration (if the goods are shipped in the territory of Ukraine); G/LIC/N/3/UKR/8 
 
- 10 - 
 
  - Delivery-acceptance act or other document certifying provision of services or performance of

quantitative restrictions on imports under this system are applied to goods with respect to which Interagency Commission for international trade (further - Commission) has adopted a decision to 
apply safeguard measures in accordance with Law of Ukraine "On application of special measures 
with respect to imports to Ukraine" #332-XIV of 22 December 1998. Quota-based regulation of 
imports is implemented by way of issuance of special licenses. The total amount of import under 
such licenses may not exceed the established quota. 
 Importation of goods specified by Decision of the Commission is carried out on the basis of special 
licenses issued by the Ministry of Econ omic Development and Trade of Ukraine. 
 This system of licensing is non-automatic.  
Purposes and coverage of licensing 
2.  In 2015 the specified system covers the lic ensing of imports of seamless casing and pumping 
steel pipes with outer diameter not more than 406.4 mm (code 7304 29 10 00 and 
7304 29 30 00). 
 
3.  The special licensing system applies regardle ss of the country of origin and export. The annual 
special quota for imports to Ukraine is 29112 tons.  
The special measures are applied for the period of one year and a half - from 01.04.2015 until 
30.09.2016.  
The first period: 01.04.2015 - 30.09.2015 – quota 9 608 tons. The second period: 01.10.2015 - 
30.09.2016 – quota 19504 tons.   
Amounts of the special quota are allocated as follows: 
 
Country of export /origin Qu ota for the first  period: 
01.04.2015 - 30.09.2015, tons Quota for the second  period: 
01.10.2015 - 30.09.2016, tons 
Russian Federation 6830 13865 
Austria 1408 2858 
Poland 632 1284 
Romania 121 245 
Slovakia 98 199 
India 41 84 
China 28 56 
Other countries 450 914 
 
In case of allocation of quotas between the exporting countries, such allocation may be agreed with such countries. If no such agreement has been reached, the quotas will be allocated between the exporting countries depending on their shar es of imports in Ukraine subject to special 
investigation during the previous representative period. 
 4.  The special licensing system is intended to re strict the quantity of imports of the determined 
goods. The purpose of licensing is the protection of interests of domestic industry from growing 
imports when product is being imported in such increased quantities and under such conditions as to cause or threaten to cause serious injury to the domestic industry that produces like or directly 
competitive products.

  5.  The system of special licensing is establis hed by the Law of Ukraine "On the Application of 
Special Measures to Imports into Ukraine," No. 332-XIV, dated 22 December 1998 and the Law of Ukraine "On Foreign Economic Activity" No. 959-XII, dated 16 April 1991 with relevant changes and amendments. Quantitative restrictions of imports under this licensing system are established 
according to the Decisions of the Commission and orders of the Ministry of Economic Development 
and Trade. The Decision of the Commission dete rmines the products subject to licensing. The 
Government may not cancel the special licensing system without a legislative approval. 
 
In particular, the Order of Ministry of Economy and European Integration of Ukraine as of 13.10.2008 #552 "On application of special measures  relating to the importation in Ukraine of 
seamless casing and pumping steel pipes regardless of country of origin and export" pursuant to 
the decision of the Commission as of 23.07.2008 # SP- 329/2015/4442-06 "On application of 
special measures relating to the importation in Ukraine of seamless casing and compressor-pump steel pipes regardless of country of origin and export". 
 
The Order of the Ministry of Economy and European Integration of Ukraine of 01.08.2008 #232 “On the procedure of licensing of import of goods subject to special measures” (as amended) is

Procedures 
6.I. According to the special import licensing sy stem, which envisages quota allocation, the lists 
of products are determined by the decisions of the Commission. 
 
Decisions of the Commission regarding the application of special measures as to imports of 
certain goods with allocation of aggregate level of quotas and allocation of quotas by countries of export/origin are published in the of ficial publication, in particular: "Uruadoviy 
Courier" (Governmental Courier) newspaper. 
 Orders of the Ministry of Economic Developm ent and Trade, which are registered with the 
Ministry of Justice and published in the official publication, in particular: "Offitsiyniy Visnyk 
Ukrainy" (Official Bulletin of Ukraine), determine licensing procedures apply to import of 
goods to Ukraine subject to special measures. The specified regulatory-legal acts are also made available on the Internet sites of government agencies, in particular, of the Cabinet of 
Ministers of Ukraine ( http://www.kmu.gov.ua/ ) and the Ministry of Economic Development 
and Trade ( http://www.me.gov.ua/?lang=uk-UA ). 
 
Information relating to the status of use of import quotas in 2015 under this system of 
licensing is updated monthly on the official website of the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade: http://www.me.gov.ua/Documents/List?lang=uk-
UA&tag=InformatsiiaSchodoStanuVikoristanniaEksportno-importnikhKvot-2  . 
 
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine notifies governmental bodies of exporting countries. 
 
To prevent monopolization of the market the total number of applications from the same 
importer to obtain special licenses within the established quotas may not exceed 35 per cent 
of the size of the quota period or such other pe riod if envisaged by the relevant decision of 
the Commission. 
 
General provisions relating to the procedure for importation of goods subject to the quota 
regime, apply to all business entities without any exceptions. 
 
Any exceptions or deviations from the requirements of special licensing are not allowed 
without amendments of normative and legislative acts.

The period of validity of a special license with in the customs territory of Ukraine is 90 days, 
except for cases of expiry of relevant quota period. If an entity engaged in the foreign 
economic activities of Ukraine under the issued  special license fails to import the specified 
quantity of goods within the period specified in  the license, then, based on the verification 
by the customs body of the actual size of the import of these goods and their remaining 
quantity under the special license, the Minist ry of Economic Development and Trade will 
issue a new license for the remaining goods. In such a case the importer is required to file 
an application for the new license for the remaining goods. 
 
III. Licensing procedures apply to all importers of goods subject special measures under 
decisions of the Commission. 
 
The Ministry of Economic Development and Tr ade quarterly examines information on the 
actual imports of products subject to special measures, submitted by the State Customs Service of Ukraine.

approval of one's application. 
 VIII. If the demand for a license cannot be fully satisfied, then a license is issued for a part of the 
demand, i.e., for amount of quota left. Applications for special licenses are considered in the 
order of their submission, pursuant to dates of  registration with the Ministry of Economic 
Development and Trade of Ukraine. 
 
To prevent monopolization of the market the total number of applications from the same 
importer to obtain special licenses within the established quotas may not exceed 35 per cent of the size of the quota period or such other pe riod if envisaged by the relevant decision of 
the Commission. All importers differ only by date of the submission of the application.
