CSDDD in Ukraine
CSDDD compliance requirements, deadlines, penalties and implementation guidance for companies operating in Ukraine. Updated 2026.
Who must comply with CSDDD in Ukraine
Companies incorporated in Ukraine that meet the CSRD thresholds — 1,000+ employees AND €450M+ net turnover under the Omnibus package — must comply with CSDDD. Non-EU companies with significant EU operations including Ukraine may also fall within scope.
Wave 1 companies (large PIEs previously under NFRD) began reporting on FY2024 data. Wave 2 companies will report from FY2027 under the Amended ESRS. The national competent authority in Ukraine enforces compliance and can impose penalties for non-filing or materially incomplete reports.
CSDDD deadlines for Ukraine companies
The filing deadline is 4 months after fiscal year end. For December fiscal year ends, this means April. Ukraine companies must file their CSDDD sustainability report as part of their annual management report and make it available through the European Single Access Point (ESAP).
Wave 1 companies have already filed their first CSDDD reports. Wave 2 companies must begin data collection now to be ready for FY2027 reporting. Allow 18–24 months lead time from first data collection to first filing.
CSDDD enforcement in Ukraine
CSDDD is enforced at member state level. The national competent authority in Ukraine has powers to investigate, require restatement, and impose financial penalties for non-compliance. Financial penalties can reach €10M or a percentage of annual group turnover — whichever is higher.
Beyond financial penalties, non-compliant companies may be excluded from EU public procurement and face restricted access to EU financing programmes. ESMA coordinates enforcement consistency across member states.
