Honeywell’s end-to-end solution for digital excise code scanning, seamless integration with Ukraine’s eExicse system, secure data exchange and real-time regulatory reporting

Building Trust and Transparency in Ukraine’s Tobacco Supply Chain

Ukraine has implemented a national electronic excise system (eExcise) as part of its Track & Trace (T&T) framework for tobacco products. The system is developed and digitally administered by the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine in cooperation with the Ministry of Finance and the State Tax Service of Ukraine.

Designed in line with Ukraine’s EU integration objectives and international commitments under the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC), the eExcise platform establishes a centralized digital infrastructure for monitoring the movement of tobacco products across the entire supply chain.

Ukraine’s Track & Trace system is intended to combat illicit trade and counterfeit tobacco products, strengthen excise tax control, and ensure full transparency and accountability — from manufacturing and importation to wholesale distribution, logistics operations, and retail sales.

New Tobacco Track & Trace Rules in Ukraine

Under Law of Ukraine No. 3173-IX (based on Draft Law No. 8287), Ukraine introduced a national Electronic Excise system (eАкциз) covering tobacco products, alcohol beverages and liquids for e-cigarettes.

The eАкциз system is digitally administered by the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine in cooperation with the Ministry of Finance and the State Tax Service of Ukraine.

The reform introduces mandatory digital traceability at the unit-pack level. Each pack must carry a unique DataMatrix code (ECC 200) compliant with ISO/IEC 16022 standards.

All participants, from producers to retailers, must implement end-to-end systems for unit-pack level traceability.

This requires scanning production or aggregate codes and reporting all data directly to the eExcise system. These measures are designed to ensure fiscal control, protect legitimate market players, and eliminate illicit trade.

Compliance Timeline & Implementation Phases

Ukraine adopted a phased implementation model to allow businesses to adapt their IT and logistics systems.

Approved Implementation Schedule:

  • Until 11 October 2026 – The system operates exclusively in test mode.
  • 12–31 October 2026 – Mandatory registration of economic operators, creation of electronic cabinets and assignment of identifiers.
  • From 1 November 2026 – Full operational launch of all components of the eАкциз system. Digital marking and reporting become mandatory for tobacco products.
  • Until 1 May 2027 – Businesses may return unused paper excise stamps.

Paper excise stamps remain permitted during the transition period in accordance with CMU Resolution No. 1756, but their use will be discontinued after the final deadline.

Risks and Penalties for Non-Compliance

Non-compliance with excise legislation and digital reporting obligations may result in significant financial penalties under the Tax Code of Ukraine and related administrative legislation.

Depending on the nature of the violation, sanctions may include:

  • For Legal Entities:
    • From UAH 17,000 (minor administrative violations)
    • Up to UAH 500,000+ for serious breaches related to production, storage or circulation of unmarked excisable goods
    • Confiscation of goods and equipment in severe cases
  • For Company Officials:
    • From UAH 8,500 to UAH 34,000 for violations of excise procedures
    • Higher fines for repeated offenses
  • For Entrepreneurs / Individual Operators:
    • From UAH 17,000 to UAH 102,000, depending on the type and severity of violation
  • Additional Risks:
    • Suspension or revocation of production/import licenses
    • Seizure of goods
    • Administrative or criminal liability in cases involving large-scale illicit trade

Sanctions depend on the type of violation (absence of proper marking, failure to register movement events, obstruction of inspections, use of non-compliant codes, etc.), and repeat offenses may result in increased penalties.
