Transparency Register launched in Ukraine: opportunities and functions
Kyiv • UNN
The Transparency Register, a platform for collecting and publishing data on lobbying entities, has started operating in Ukraine. From September 1, 2025, it will become a key tool of the Law of Ukraine "On Lobbying".
The Transparency Register has started operating in Ukraine. This is a platform that collects, processes, and publishes data on lobbying entities and their reporting. UNN reports this with reference to the NACP.
On September 1, 2025, the Law of Ukraine "On Lobbying" comes into force, which forms the legal basis for the development of a transparent and responsible lobbying culture, defines the rules for influencing the legislative process, and ensures its accountability to society. Simultaneously with the entry into force of the Law, the National Agency on Corruption Prevention (NACP) puts into industrial operation the key tool for its implementation, the "Transparency Register" — an open public platform that collects, processes, and publishes data on lobbying entities and their reporting.
It is reported that the start of the Register's operation means that persons engaged in lobbying — influencing or attempting to influence, in particular, state authorities, regarding the adoption of regulatory acts in their own or commercial interests of beneficiaries, are obliged to obtain the status of a lobbying entity. This can be done (in the absence of restrictions provided for in Part 4 of Article 10 of the Law) by:
• a natural person with full civil legal capacity;
• a legal entity registered under the laws of Ukraine;
• a foreign legal entity that has its representative office in Ukraine in accordance with the Law of Ukraine "On Foreign Economic Activity".
It is noted that a person wishing to obtain the status of a lobbying entity must submit to the Register the information provided for by the Law. To do this, you need to fill out the appropriate registration form, available after authorization.
The Register consists of two parts:
• public — open to all users. It contains information about lobbying entities, their reports, statistics, dashboards, and informational materials (except for restricted access information);
• electronic cabinet — a personal environment for registered users, where they can create, submit reports, and update information about the lobbying entity.
In the public part of the Register, anyone can search and view information about lobbying entities and their reporting, verify the authenticity of extracts generated by the Register, familiarize themselves with statistical data and dashboards on lobbying, and view informational materials.
A person using the Register's tools can obtain the status of a lobbying entity, generate and submit reports, update data, change this status (terminate, suspend, renew, or re-acquire), obtain an extract generated by the Register's tools containing information provided by law, and familiarize themselves with certain documents submitted and received through the Register.
