The National Bank has revised the settlement deadlines for certain export transactions in accordance with the proposals received from the government (Cabinet order No. 573-r dated June 21, 2024 "On Amendments to the Order of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine dated February 13, 2019 No. 76").
This is stated in the NBU message, Ukrainian News Agency reports.
Taking into account the results of consultations with the Ministry of Economy, Environment and Agriculture, the NBU increases from 180 to 270 days the settlement deadlines for some transactions for the export of pipes and components for railway transport, carried out from June 15, 2026.
These are goods classified under the following codes according to the UKT FEA: 7304, 7305, 7306, 8607.
The National Bank notes that the relevant changes correspond to real logistics and production cycles and do not create risks for macro-financial stability.
"Increasing the payment deadlines will simultaneously increase the flexibility of Ukrainian exporters in conditions of long logistics cycles and complex settlements with foreign counterparties, will make it possible to avoid a reduction in exports of industrial products and will preserve foreign exchange earnings. In the future, such changes will contribute to the growth of exports and, accordingly, an increase in tax revenues, the restoration of industry and employment," the message says.
The above-mentioned changes were approved by the Resolution of the Board of the National Bank of Ukraine dated June 12, 2026 No. 63 "On Amendments to the Resolution of the Board of the National Bank of Ukraine dated May 14, 2019 No. 67", which comes into force on June 13.
As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, the NBU has the ability to independently establish only general settlement deadlines for operations on the export and import of goods (for all enterprises, regardless of the form of ownership and industry specifics).
Currently, according to the Resolution of the Board of the NBU dated February 24, 2022 No. 18 (as amended), they are 180 calendar days for operations carried out from April 5, 2022.
The NBU may establish settlement deadlines that differ from the general (increased or reduced) for entities in a certain field of activity / certain export-import operations solely on the basis of substantiated recommendations from the government.
Thus, from the beginning of 2026, in accordance with the proposals of the Cabinet of Ministers, the National Bank extended the deadlines for payments for export transactions of agricultural and specialized equipment carried out from March 1, 2026.
