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.
Under Law of Ukraine No. 3173-IX (based on Draft Law No. 8287), Ukraine introduced a national Electronic Excise system (eExcise) covering tobacco products, alcohol beverages and liquids for e-cigarettes.
The eExcise 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.
Ukraine adopted a phased implementation model to allow businesses to adapt their IT and logistics systems.
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.
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.
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.
Collect Track & Trace data across the supply chain and securely transmit it to the national eExcise platform in full compliance with Ukrainian legislation and technical regulations.
Each unit pack must carry a production code generated via the eExcise system. Optional "alternative codes" can also be linked.
Manufacturers, importers, distributors, logistics operators, and retailers face several critical challenges in aligning with Ukraine’s eExcise and Track & Trace requirements. Each stage of implementation requires precise technical and operational coordination to ensure compliance and maintain business continuity.
Aligning production lines, serialization systems, warehouse management systems (WMS), and ERP platforms with the national eExcise API infrastructure.
Ensuring correct timestamp generation, proper registration of aggregation and disaggregation events, accurate shipment declarations, and correct sequencing of dispatch and receipt confirmations.
Handling the coexistence of paper excise stamps and electronic DataMatrix codes during the phased rollout, including correct operator registration and system configuration before full mandatory enforcement.
Maintaining regulatory compliance while minimizing disruption to manufacturing throughput, aggregation processes, logistics workflows, and retail operations.
Managing API rate limits, processing standardized response codes, handling validation errors, and implementing retry mechanisms that prevent duplicate submissions or inconsistent reporting.
Ensuring secure data transmission, protection against cyber threats, and operational continuity in conditions of increased infrastructure risks and potential connectivity disruptions.
We deliver a complete, reliable compliance solution tailored to Ukraine’s eExcise and Track & Trace requirements. Our system supports every stage of your operations — from production and import to distribution and retail — ensuring full legal compliance while giving you real-time visibility and control over your supply chain.
Wir sind ein 2018 gegründetes, junges, internationales Team von Softwareentwicklern mit Sitz in Deutschland, das sich für einen agilen Ansatz und eine qualitativ hochwertige, zeitnahe Lieferung von integrierten Lösungen einsetzt.
With Ukraine’s eExcise system entering full implementation, every movement of tobacco products — from warehouse receipt to outbound dispatch — must be properly scanned, recorded, and reported to the national platform. Our Track & Trace solution is tailored for distributors, importers, wholesalers, and logistics operators operating under Ukrainian regulations.
Rather than adapting manufacturing-focused tools, we concentrate on what matters most to supply chain operators: seamless compliance embedded into daily warehouse and transport workflows.
Quickly scan and register incoming shipments into your warehouse, with automatic timestamping, DataMatrix validation, and secure reporting to the eExcise system.
Create, split, or reorganize pallets, cartons, and master cases while maintaining full aggregation logic. Parent-child relationships are automatically updated and reported in compliance with Ukrainian requirements.
Whether delivering to retail chains, transferring goods between warehouses, or processing returns, each dispatch event is securely transmitted to eExcise, including shipment identifiers and transport references.
Integrated with your existing WMS, ERP, and scanning infrastructure, ensuring real-time inventory accuracy while reducing manual operations and duplicate data entry.
Our API-first architecture connects smoothly with enterprise systems and mobile devices, minimizing implementation time and operational disruption.
