The business will no longer require a stamped agreement from July 2017
Since July 19, 2017, officials, fiscal officials and bankers will be brought to administrative responsibility for the requirement to certify the contract with the stamp.
In March, the Verkhovna Rada endorsed the bill, which cancels the mandatory presence of printing companies on the official documents. In April, a law signed by the president, and on April 19 it was published in the official gazette.
In addition, in 2014, the Economic and Civil Codes introduced changes according to which the seal had become a right, and not an obligation of the entrepreneur. That is, parties to the transaction were given the right to decide whether an agreement to be sealed by, or enough signatures of authorized persons.
According to the current changes, the officials continue to will not be able to require the presence of entrepreneurs printing on documents. Otherwise, officials will be brought to administrative responsibility.
Consequently, if after the entry into force of the law, the entrepreneur in any state institution does not receive the document without an imprint of the press, he has the right to apply to the court to bring the subject of authority to responsibility and to recover from him a fine. It should be noted that the penalty is paid in favor of the state. And if you have been wrongfully refused, you should initiate a separate dispute about their recovery from officials.
