As I understand it, from 2026, our manufacturers will no longer be able to write 'Ukrainian cognac' on bottles and must only use the name 'brandy'. If a company nevertheless continues to produce goods under the old name or fails to change labels by the specified date, what specific sanctions or fines will it face? Are there any other serious consequences besides fines?
I heard that it is now possible to submit a declaration of conformity of the material and technical base for business through the Diia portal. If I plan to start my own business and use this service, what legal consequences could there be for me if, for example, I make mistakes in filling out such a declaration or fail to submit all the data? Can I correct it later, and what threatens me if information discrepancies are found?
Currently, news often features discussions about calls to hold elections in Ukraine, with statements even coming from foreign leaders. I don't quite understand: is it generally possible to conduct nationwide elections in our country during martial law or other extraordinary circumstances? If not, who exactly should decide when elections can be organized, and are there any official criteria or rules for this matter?
I read a story about a man who was deprived of the right to drive by a court decision, but he still got behind the wheel and was stopped by the police. Now he has received a suspended sentence for intentionally failing to comply with a court decision. I am interested, if I am officially deprived of my driving rights and still get behind the wheel, what might be the consequences for me? Does this always result in criminal liability, or can it be limited to just a fine or some other punishment? I really want to understand what the main risks are in such a situation and what exactly the law provides.
I am currently looking for a job and I encounter employers asking for a military ID or other military registration documents. However, I don't have a military ID yet because I am not registered for military service. Can I truly not get officially employed without this document, and what could be the consequences for me or the employer in such a situation?
I read the news that a man was mistakenly added to the database of wanted conscripts due to a bureaucratic error. This scares me a bit, as I don't understand what to do if I also find myself in such a situation due to incorrect data at the military recruitment office. What are my actions to quickly correct such an error and remove myself from the wanted list? Is there a way to prove that it's not my fault, and will I bear any responsibility for this?
I heard about a case where a man was added to the database of wanted conscripts due to a bureaucratic error. This scares me a little because I am also registered for military service. Please tell me, if I am suddenly declared wanted due to someone's mistake, how can I quickly correct this, and who will be responsible for such inaccurate entries in the registration databases?
Please tell me what to do if I unexpectedly found out that I was mistakenly entered into the database of wanted persons liable for military service due to a bureaucratic error? How can this situation be quickly rectified to avoid problems with the police or traveling abroad?
I read news about a woman who was fired for coming to work earlier than the set time, and the court recognized this as a serious violation of labor discipline. I wonder if an employer in Ukraine really has the right to dismiss an employee just because they consistently come to work too early, even if they don't violate other rules? Is this a valid ground for dismissal under Ukrainian law?
I recently found out that a certain amount of insurance experience is required to apply for a pension, and I'm a bit short. Can I really 'buy' the necessary insurance experience? What is the procedure for this, how much might it cost, and are there any limitations or nuances when voluntarily participating in the pension system?
I was raised in an orphanage because my parents were effectively absent, but officially the status of a child deprived of parental care was not formalized for me until I turned 18. Do I now have the right to receive housing or compensation, as provided for such children, even if the state did not issue the relevant documents at that time?
