Our Business Registration Services

Do You Need a Lawyer or Is the Diia App Enough?

Registering a FOP or LLC through the Ukrainian government app «Diia» is free and can be done independently. You need a lawyer if:

  • there is a foreign founder or director
  • you need VAT registration simultaneously with company registration
  • the founder is abroad and cannot submit documents in person
  • the ownership structure is complex (multiple founders, corporate rights)
  • you need a registered legal address
  • you have no time to deal with activity codes (KVEDs), articles of association and tax systems

Why Yrincom

  • Law firm since 1992 — over 30 years of registration practice
  • Fixed price from the start — no hidden fees or additional charges during the process
  • Remote service available — founders can be anywhere in Ukraine or abroad
  • Full document package on completion — open a bank account and start operating immediately

Frequently Asked Questions

FOP or LLC — which is better?
For a freelancer, IT specialist or small business without partners — FOP is simpler and cheaper to maintain. LLC is needed if you have partners, foreign clients or counterparties that require working with a legal entity.

Can I register a business remotely?
Yes. FOP and LLC registration is available without the founder's personal presence — via notarised power of attorney or qualified electronic signature (QES).

Do you work with foreign founders?
Yes. We register LLCs with foreign individuals and non-resident legal entities. Service fee — from UAH 5,500.

How long does registration take?
FOP — 1 business day. LLC — 5 business days after document preparation.

How much does company registration in Kyiv cost?
LLC registration starts from UAH 4,000 and usually takes 5 business days. Sole proprietor registration starts from UAH 900 and usually takes 1 business day. The exact cost depends on the founder structure, notarisation requirements, legal address needs and related support services.

What is the difference between company registration and enterprise registration?
Clients often use these terms interchangeably. In practice, most such requests concern LLC registration, because an LLC is the most common legal form for doing business in Ukraine. The right structure still depends on the founders, the business model and the goals of the project.

Which business form should I choose: sole proprietor, LLC or a ready-made company?
A sole proprietor is usually simpler and cheaper for a freelancer or a small business without partners. An LLC is more suitable if there are partners, foreign clients, investors or a need for a full legal entity. A ready-made company may be useful when you need to start operations quickly with VAT registration or an already existing company history.
