Key points
- New working group established to assist businesses with municipal authorities
- Single-window service launched for mobile shelter consultations
- Property tax temporarily waived for six months on war-damaged real estate
Kyiv municipal authorities are scaling up cooperation with business representatives to ensure continuous enterprise operations amid martial law. According to Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko following a meeting with major business stakeholders, the primary focus is on security, shelter arrangements, generator usage, and mitigating losses from Russian attacks.
A dedicated working group was established in Kyiv in October to streamline interactions between companies and local executive bodies. Business owners have received clear guidelines regarding corporate transport permits during curfew hours, as well as regulations for installing and operating generators at commercial sites.
Additionally, the Kyiv City State Administration launched a single-window consultancy service to assist businesses with setting up mobile shelters on corporate and adjacent municipal land.
"Kyiv is strengthening its interaction with entrepreneurs to quickly resolve the issues that businesses face during the war," Vitali Klitschko stated.
As a significant financial relief measure, the Kyiv City Council previously voted to cancel property taxes for businesses whose assets were destroyed or severely damaged by enemy strikes. A zero tax rate for first-category damaged properties has been implemented for a period of six months.
