Here is an analysis of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine Order No. 552-r dated June 4, 2026.
### 1. Essence of the Document
This is a strategic document that defines the state policy of Ukraine in the sphere of foreign trade for the period up to 2030, under conditions of martial law and European integration. Its primary goal is the transition from a commodity-based export model to the export of goods and services with high value-added. The strategy is aimed at scaling up production, attracting investments, and integrating Ukrainian business into global value chains. For practical implementation, an operational plan for 2026–2028 has been approved, which provides for specific steps to support exporters and develop infrastructure.
### 2. Structure and Main Provisions
The document consists of an enacting part, the Export Strategy itself, and an operational plan. The strategy covers an analysis of the current situation (impact of the war, logistical challenges, structure of exports) and defines strategic goals and mechanisms for achieving them.
* **Main goals:** increasing the production of export-oriented goods, creating favorable conditions for exports, and strengthening state institutions (in particular, the Export Credit Agency and the Entrepreneurship and Export Promotion Office).
* **Changes:** unlike the previous strategy (2017–2021), this document takes into account the realities of martial law, the need for adaptation to EU law (EU acquis), and focuses on the development of the defense-industrial complex as a powerful export sector.
### 3. Important Provisions for Use
For businesses and government agencies, the key aspects are as follows:
* **Financial support:** an emphasis on insurance of investments against war risks and the development of Export Credit Agency instruments (credit insurance, portfolio insurance).
* **Infrastructure and market access:** priority for concluding the ACAA Agreement (Agreement on Conformity Assessment and Acceptance of Industrial Goods) to simplify access to the EU market, development of industrial parks, and simplification of logistics (in particular, feeder container transport).
* **Digitalization:** development of the “Diia.Business” portal as a single window for exporters, including artificial intelligence services and the “Electronic Exporter’s Cabinet.”
* **Institutional support:** creation of an international coalition to support Ukrainian exports and strengthening the role of economic departments in diplomatic missions of Ukraine.
**Note:** As this act relates to the regulation of foreign economic activity, currency regulation, and customs procedures, it directly affects the application of the norms of the Tax and Customs Codes of Ukraine, as well as the Law of Ukraine “On Foreign Economic Activity.”
