The EBA\u2019s experts have consistently emphasised<\/a> the need to introduce mechanisms for monitoring online sales of excisable goods and combating illegal online platforms. Businesses have actively participated in relevant discussions and engaged with public authorities, as the lack of an effective mechanism to restrict access to such resources created an uneven competitive environment for licensed market participants.<\/p>\nThe next important stage will be the practical implementation of the adopted changes. In particular, the State Tax Service of Ukraine must ensure the launch of the Register of Website Addresses of License Holders by 1 January 2027<\/strong>. The Register will include information on websites, domain names, IP addresses, and mobile applications used for the legal online trade in the relevant products. The introduction of the Register is expected to provide the basis for further identification of and access restrictions on online resources selling excisable goods in violation of legal requirements.<\/p>\nThe EBA expects that the mechanism provided for by the law will be fully implemented in practice and that blocking illegal online platforms will become an effective tool in combating shadow trade. We will continue to monitor the implementation of the new legislative provisions and engage with public authorities to ensure a level playing field and transparent business conditions.<\/p>\n
