ELEKS has been selected from numerous local and international software companies to implement a transformational digital initiative for Ukraine’s government. The e-Excise system will regulate the circulation of alcoholic beverages and tobacco products in Ukraine, aiming to increase monitoring and control in these sectors.
ELEKS has become a software partner of choice for delivering Ukraine's electronic excise stamp system, eExcise, following a competitive tender process conducted by the Digital Transformation Activity (DTA). To replace traditional paper excise stamps, e-Excise will introduce electronic stamps with unique codes, enhancing transparency in the excise goods market. The system will allow licensed producers to generate and apply DataMatrix-coded stamps directly onto alcohol and tobacco products, streamlining the process and reducing bureaucracy.
- Key features of e-Excise:
- Electronic activation of stamps upon tax payment
- Improved government oversight of excisable goods
- Potential increase in budget revenues through reducing shadow market
- Consumer verification of product information via the Diia app
The e-Excise project is a collaborative effort of the Ministry of Digital Transformation, the Ministry of Finance, and the State Tax Service of Ukraine. USAID and UK Dev support it through the Digital Transformation Activity, with East Europe Foundation and the Institute of Analytics and Advocacy as implementing partners.
"This initiative, set to be developed by the end of 2025, promises to digitally transform the alcohol and tobacco excise processes in Ukraine, address inefficiencies in this field, and thus significantly influence the Ukrainian economy. This March, the ELEKS team successfully launched the MVP of the e-Excise system, which was opened for public testing. This marks a big step in modernising alcohol and tobacco industry regulations.", commented Vladyslav Hapanovych, Head of the Engineering Division, US Gov Projects at ELEKS.
