On January 26, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine amended the Regulation on the Unified State Web Portal of Electronic Services. According to the Ministry of Digital Transformation, this will allow to start working on a service that will allow legal entities to remotely receive Diia.Signature.


For more information on how a foreigner can obtain a qualified electronic signature (QES) in Ukraine, please follow the link.



Diia.Signature is the most secure electronic signature that can be activated in seconds in the Diia app. With this tool, all documents can be signed online. In addition, Diia.Signature can be used for authorization on platforms and applications. Previously, this service was available only to individuals.


However, thanks to the adopted resolution, legal entities will also be able to generate an electronic signature in the application in the future, regardless of the martial law in Ukraine. According to the Ministry of Digital Transformation, this will greatly simplify business, help speed up processes and make actions more transparent for entrepreneurs.
