14. A license is issued for a term that does not prevent the subject of foreign economic activities 
from importing, including from importation from distant 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 1s t of March of the following year, unless otherwise 
is provided by applicable international agreem ents. This provision is  implemented by annual 
resolutions of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukra ine 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. Other conditions accompanying issuance of licenses are:  - submission of a document verifying payment of the fee for a license; - submission of a power of attorney, or of a copy of a power of attorney authorizing receipt of a 
license, and submission of a document identifying the person receiving the license if the 
license is issued to the authorized representa tive of the subject of entrepreneurial activity. 
 
Other Procedural requirements
 
 
18. There are no administrative procedures prior to  importation other than the licensing procedure 
for importation of goods (and if necessary prior r eceiving of approval of relevant administrative 
bodies specified in section 5d).  19. Payments for goods that are being imported ar e made pursuant to terms and conditions of the  
foreign economic agreement (contract) between a s ubject 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 forei gn economic agreement (contract). If the amount of 
foreign currency in the account of an importer in the authorized bank is l ess 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 his having an import license.  
 
 Possession of currency by the importer depends on the results of its business (export) activity. 
  If necessary, foreign currency is purchased at the inter-bank currency market of Ukraine.  
 
 Resolution of the Board of the National Ba nk 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 cu rrency market of Ukraine for payments to 
non-residents in connection with trade transactions.  G/LIC/N/3/UKR/2 
Page 12  
 
   Under this Resolution, a purchase of fore ign currency for purposes of payments to 
non-residents in connection with trade transacti ons is carried out on the basis of the following 
documents:  -  application for a purchase of foreign currency; 
- agreement with a non-resident prepared in  accordance with requirements of the existing 
legislation of Ukraine; 
-  shipment customs declaration (if the goods  are shipped in the territory of Ukraine); 
-  delivery-acceptance act or other document certifying provision of services or performance of 
works; 
-  documents required for the documentary form of payments (letter of credit, encashment). 
 
II. THE SYSTEM OF LICENSING USING QUOTAS FOR IMPORTED GOODS, 
WHICH ARE ESTABLISHED UNDER SEPARATE DECISIONS OF THE INTERAGENCY COMMISSION OF UKRAINE FOR INTERNATIONAL TRADE 
Outline of system
 
 
1. Under the Law of Ukraine “O n foreign economic activities” #959- ХІІ of 16.04.1991, 
quantitative restrictions on imports under this syst em 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 spec ial 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 Economy of Ukraine. 
  This system of licensing is non-automatic.  
 
Purposes and covering of licensing
 
 2. In 2009 the specified system covers the li censing of imports of s eamless casing and pumping 
steel pipes with outer diameter not more than 406.4 mm (code 7304 29 11 00).  3. Currently the special licensing system applies re gardless of the country of origin and export to 
seamless casing and pumping steel pipes with out er diameter not more than 406.4 mm.  
 
 The annual special quota for imports to Ukraine is 14504 tons.   The special measures are applied for the period of three years – from 01.10.2008 until 30.09.2011.   The first annual period begins on 01. 10.2008 and ends on 30.09.2009.  
 The second annual period: 01.10.2009 – 30.09.2010.  
 The third annual period: 01.10.2010 – 30.09.2011.  
    
 
    G/LIC/N/3/UKR/2 
 Page 13 
 
 
   Annual amounts of the special quota are allocated as follows: 
 
Country of export 
/origin Quota for the first 
annual period 
(01.10.2008 – 
30.09.2009), tons Quota for the second 
annual period 
(01.10.2009 – 
30.09.2010), tons Quota for the third annual 
period (01.10.2010 – 
30.09.2011), tons 
Russian Federation 10311  10827  11342  
Austria 2125  2231  2337  
Poland 955  1003  1051  
Romania 181  190  200  
Slovakia 148  156  163  
India  63  66  69  
China  42  44  46  
Other countries 679  713  747  
 
 In case of allocation of quotas between the expor ting countries, such allocation may be agreed 
with such countries. If no such agreement has been reached, the q uotas will be allocated between the 
exporting countries depending on their shares of imports  in Ukraine subject to special investigation 
during the previous representative period.  4. The special licensing system is intended to rest rict the quantity of imports of the determined 
goods.  The purpose of licensing is the protection of interests of national goods producers from 
growing imports of such goods.  5. The system of special licensing is established 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-X II, dated 16 April 1991 with relevant changes 
and amendments.  Quantitative restrictions of im ports under this licensing system are established 
according to the Decisions of the Commission and orders of the Ministry of Economy. In particular, by order of the Ministry of Economy 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-
182/2008/143-31 «On application of special measures relating to the importation in Ukraine of 
seamless casing and compressor-pump steel pipes re gardless of country of origin and export". 
  The Decision of the Commission determines the products subject to licensing.  The Government may not cancel the special licensing system without a legislative approval. 
 
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 app lication of special measures as to imports of 
certain goods with allocation of quotas are published in the official publication, in particular:  
"Uruadoviy Courier" (Governmental Courier) news paper. Orders of the Ministry of Economy, 
which are registered with the Ministry of Justi ce and published in the official publication, in 
particular: "Offitsiyniy Visnyk Ukrainy" (Offici al Bulletin of Ukraine), determine allocation 
of quotas by countries of export/origin. 
 G/LIC/N/3/UKR/2 
Page 14  
 
   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 /www.kmu.gov.ua/ and the Ministry of Economy ( http://me.kmu.gov.ua
). 
  Information relating to the status of use of import quotas in 2009 under this system of 
licensing is updated monthly on the official  website of the Ministry of Economy 
(me.kmu.gov.ua). 
  The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine notifies governmental organs of exporting 
countries.  
 
 To prevent monopolization of the market the total number of applications from the same 
importer to obtain special licenses within th e established quotas may not exceed 35 per cent 
of the size of the quota period or such other pe riod envisaged by the relevant decision of the 
Commission.   
 
 General provisions relating to the procedur e for importation of goods subject to the quota 
regime, apply to all business entities w ithout any exceptions or exclusions.  
  Any exceptions or deviations from the requirements of special licensing are not allowed 
without amendments of normative and legislative acts. 
 
II. The size of the special quota is determined for a quota period and may not exceed the amount 
specified by the relevant decision of the Co mmission. The quota period and allocation of 
quotas during the quota period shall be set by the relevant decision of the Commission.  
 
 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 granted 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 Ministry of Ec onomy will issue a new license for the remaining 
goods. In such a case the importer is required to f ile 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 Economy quarterly examines in formation on the actual imports of products 
subject to special measures, submitted by the State Customs Service of Ukraine. 
  In case if the special quota is not used fully in the quota period, it is allowed to carry over the 
remaining quota for the next quota period within 6 percent of the quota size set for the quota 
period,  unless otherwise is provided by applicable decision of the Commission. 
  Information regarding recipients of a sp ecial license may be provided upon request. 
 IV. The applications for import licenses are accepted starting from 14 days prior to the first day of 
the relevant quota period. 
 V. The length of time for processing applications is 15 working days.  VI. A special license shall be effective for importation of goods as of the date of its issuance.  G/LIC/N/3/UKR/2 
 Page 15 
 
 
   
VII. The Ministry of Economy of Ukraine consider s license applications.  Applications shall not 
be submitted to other bodies for approval, comme nting or endorsement.  An importer does not 
have to apply to any other administrativ e bodies for approval of one’s application. 
 
VIII. If the demand for a license cannot be fully satisfi ed, then a license is issued for a part of the 
demand, i.e., for amount of quota left.  Applicati ons for special licenses are considered in the 
order of their submission, pursuant to dates of registration with the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine.  
 
 To prevent monopolization of the market the total number of applications from the same 
importer to obtain special licenses within th e established quotas may not exceed 35 per cent 
of the size of the quota period or such other peri od if envisaged by the relevant decision of the 
Commission. All importers differ only by date of the submission of the application.  Applications are considered in the order of their receipt. 
 
IX. Issue of special licenses under this scheme do es not depend on availability  of bilateral quotas 
or arrangements.  Special licenses are not issued automatically. 
 X. There are no such cases.  
XI. There are no such cases. 
 7(a) Acceptance of import license applications starts 14 days prior to the first day of the relevant 
quota period.  The term of obtaining license depends only on the technical capabilities of the licensing body. 
 
(b) The term during which the license application may be considered is 15 working days.  The 
license may be issued in a shortest possi ble term, which depends on the technical 
opportunities of the relevant competent body. 
 (c)  Acceptance of import license applications starts 14 days prior to the first day of the relevant 
quota period. The license application may be denied providing the amount of quota

pass applications to other organs for visa, note or approval. The importe r has to approach one 
administrative organ only. 
 8. A special license application is accepted in a ll cases except for cases of inconsistency of the 
filed application with provisions of the contract  and/or submission of the application in an 
inappropriate form, and/or submission of  incomplete set of required documents. 
 
 License may be denied due to the following reasons: 
 - the submitted documents are inconsistent  with current Ukrainian legislation; 
- the amount of the special quota is exhausted; and - imposition on the subject of foreign economic activ ities, or on his foreign partner, of a special 
- sanction in the form of temporary suspen sion of foreign economic activities pursuant to 
 Article 37 of Law of Ukraine "On foreign economic activities". 
  A decision to refuse the issue of a license  may be appealed by the subject of entrepreneurial 
activity to the district administrative court with th e jurisdiction over the place of the state registration G/LIC/N/3/UKR/2
