How to get a certificate of bankruptcy / no bankruptcy?

A certificate on the absence of bankruptcy can be useful not only for businesses, but also for ordinary citizens. After all, it confirms the financial capacity and reliability of a person.

An up-to-date certificate of no bankruptcy increases the chances of success in various endeavors where you need to prove your financial reputation.

How will this help help?

A certificate of absence of bankruptcy may be required in the following cases:

• When receiving a loan from a bank. Financial institutions grant loans only to financially capable and reliable borrowers, so the presence of a certificate increases the chances of a positive decision.
• During participation in state and commercial tenders, contests, auctions. Customers want to do business with stable companies, so they demand evidence of their non-involvement in bankruptcy.
• In court proceedings, a judge may require a certificate to ensure that a party is solvent and not in a state of bankruptcy.
• Potential business partners or clients may insist on a reference as a guarantee of the counterparty’s financial capacity and reliability.
• When concluding economic agreements or contracts to minimize the risks of non-fulfillment of obligations.

Where and who can get a certificate?

In Ukraine, certificates of absence of bankruptcy can be issued by both an individual and a legal entity, if such a need arises and is issued by the Department of the Ministry of Justice.

For example, an ordinary citizen may need it to prove his financial capacity and obtain a bank loan.

Companies often need such a certificate to assure counterparties, which may include foreign firms, that they are not insolvent.

In both cases, the certificate is drawn up by applying to the Ministry of Justice at the location of the person or company. If there are no bankruptcy cases, an official certificate confirming financial capacity is issued. It has the same legal force for both individuals and legal entities.
