From December 1st, a new digital mechanism for importing humanitarian aid into Ukraine will be launched. Recipients will be able to submit the declaration online using the Automated Humanitarian Aid Registration System. Simultaneously, a transitional period will be in place allowing the submission of a paper declaration until April 1st of the following year. The form and content of the declaration remain the same in both mechanisms.
The electronic system will facilitate transparent accounting of humanitarian aid, streamline the import and distribution procedures, and prevent abuse during the import and use of humanitarian assistance.
Military guarantees, requests for delivery, and all other certificates are canceled. Reporting is also simplified - now the report can be generated in the digital system based on declarations, and most data will be automatically populated.
