Fuel retail license
Who can obtain a fuel retail license?
The right to engage in retail fuel trade is granted only to those economic entities that have officially registered and received a license to engage in such activity. Such licensing is currently regulated in accordance with the provisions of the Law of Ukraine “On State Regulation of the Production and Circulation of Ethyl Alcohol, Alcohol Distillates, Bioethanol, Alcoholic Beverages, Tobacco Products, Tobacco Raw Materials, Liquids Used in Electronic Cigarettes, and Fuel”.
The specified regulatory legal act provides for the issuance of a permit document exclusively to a legal entity (individual entrepreneur) of any organizational and legal form that:
- owns or uses a real estate object or a single property complex with technological equipment for receiving, storing and selling fuel (for example, gas stations, bunkering stations, specialized vehicles for selling liquefied gas in cylinders, etc.);
- carries out settlements at retail outlets through fiscally registered settlement transaction registrars (STRs) in accordance with the law;
- carries out activities stipulated by the Law – the purchase and further sale of fuel from specially equipped places (buildings, single property complexes) for household needs;
- is ready to pay the license fee and comply with all technological and organizational conditions imposed on it by this permit document.
It is equally important that the person confirms the absence of any ties with the aggressor state, especially in such an area as fuel retailing. A specialized lawyer at “Prikhodko & Partners” can tell you about other features and requirements for a person wishing to obtain an appropriate license.

Procedure for obtaining a fuel retail license
To successfully complete the specified procedure, it is necessary, firstly, to familiarize yourself with the basic licensing requirements for the applicant, which are partially set out above and in the special License Terms. It will also be useful to contact a lawyer to obtain all the necessary clarifications. Secondly, after that, it is necessary to responsibly approach the preparation of the necessary documentation, in particular:
- application for a license (compiled in any form and containing information about the type of activity that the business entity wishes to carry out);
- documents confirming the right to the land plot where the future place for retail fuel trade is located (for example, an extract from the Unified Register of Property Rights, a lease agreement, etc.);
- title documents confirming the commissioning of the facility of a specialized place of trade (such as a commissioning act, a certificate of acceptance of the facility for such operation, etc.);
- a preliminary permit obtained for the performance of high-risk work (for storage and changing the chemical and physical composition of the fuel itself).
When submitting documents, the following information must be clearly detailed:
- the exact address of the place of retail fuel trade (if there are several of them, then several applications are submitted with the possibility of issuing several such licenses for retail fuel trade);
- information about the registrars of settlement operations (RRO);
- availability of title documents, in addition to the real estate object where retail trade will be carried out, also for specialized equipment.
The procedure involves submitting an application directly to the State Tax Service (STS) at the place of activity, or through the “Diya” portal. For your convenience, you can contact a lawyer at “Prikhodko & Partners” for legal assistance to prepare and further submit the appropriate documentation.
