Changes in the ‘Made in Ukraine’ Policy 2026: Localization and Production Insurance

Підвищення рівня локалізації виробництва  та страхування від обстрілів: Що змінюється у політиці "Зроблено в Україні" в 2026 році?

In 2026, new tools of state policy ‘Made in Ukraine’ were introduced, aimed at strengthening support for national producers and stimulating the development of the manufacturing industry.

Increased Localization Level for Public Procurement

From now on, a mandatory localization level of at least 30% has been established for public procurement in Ukraine. This planned increase, which was anticipated back in 2022, is another step towards strengthening the positions of Ukrainian producers in the domestic market. Previously, this figure was 25%.

Insurance Against Military Risks and Grants for Businesses

Starting in 2026, companies have the opportunity to insure property against military risks in two ways:

  • Enterprises in frontline regions can benefit from direct compensation for losses. The cost of such insurance is 0.5% of the potential loss amount, and the state reimburses up to ₴10 million.
  • There is a compensation for insurance premiums for enterprises across Ukraine. The state covers part of the insurance company’s tariff for military risk insurance policies, with a compensation limit of up to ₴1 million per contract.

“For compensations, ₴1 billion has been allocated in the budget. Additionally, to support the manufacturing industry, the Cabinet has introduced a zero quota on the export of scrap metal and wood. At the same time, the government has increased the grant amount for creating or developing a business from ₴250,000 to ₴350,000. There is also the possibility to apply for a grant again.”

The measures mentioned expand opportunities for entrepreneurs in the processing sector and protect business property from risks associated with military actions. Thus, state policy strengthens the economic resilience and competitiveness of Ukrainian producers in the challenging conditions of 2026.
