Ukraine shaded by its crypto & digital assets status

As of May 2026 Ukraine has no comprehensive VASP licensing regime in force. The 2022 Virtual Assets Law (No. 2074-IX) was enacted but never took effect because it required accompanying Tax Code amendments. The replacement framework, MiCA-modelled Draft Law No. 10225-d, passed its first reading in the Verkhovna Rada on 3 September 2025 and awaits a second reading and presidential signature; until then crypto activity is legal but operates without a dedicated authorization regime.
