Law on the state Ukrainian language
and its mandatory use
What should a business do in order not to violate the law on the state language
On January 16, 2022, the Law “On Ensuring the Functioning of the Ukrainian Language as a State Language” comes into force in Ukraine. (hereinafter referred to as the Law). It will affect almost all spheres of social life, including business. The use of the state language will become a mandatory condition for any business activity.
Internet resources
According to Clause 6 of Art. 27 all Internet resources (websites, pages in social networks, channels on the Telegram, Viber, YouTube platforms, mobile applications, etc.), which are used as online representations of business entities, registered in Ukraine (in particular, informational Internet resources), obliged to provide information in Ukrainian.
Breach of the Law will be fined
Violation of the new rules of interaction with customers threatens business owners with a fine. The process will be coordinated by the National Commission for State Language Standards. This is a new body of the executive power, whose representatives are obliged to monitor compliance with the norms of the use of the Ukrainian language.
What liability is provided
If within 30 days from the moment of registration of the complaint, the violation is not eliminated, the authorized persons will draw up a protocol and issue a resolution on the collection of a fine in the amount of 300 to 400 tax-free minimum incomes of citizens. And this is from UAH 5,100 to UAH 6,800, respectively, since at the beginning of 2021 the fixed amount of one tax-free minimum is UAH 17. An important clarification: it is not the company employee who violated the Law that will be fined, but his company-employer.
